About Me
Personal



    I am 28 and live in Shropshire.



      MTB History



        Started MTB in 1996, racing XC in Midlands and NPS.
        Won a couple of XC and DS races and then started to race only DH again Midlands and NPS.



          Raced in Youth and Juniors DH and had a sponsorship deal with Pearce Cycles in Ludlow, then after NPS in Ae forest I damaged my ACL badly. Had it fixed but it didn't feel the same. Only raced a couple more races and didn't do so well, so I quit racing and then MTB in 2000.



            Then in 2009 after 2 more knee ops, I am getting back into biking.

Ultimately, if there was an obvious safety risk from using a camera then they wouldn't be used at all (for social or race use).

For me it has been a 10 year long journey to get to where I am as a rider. So basically, trying not to bore you all, this is my story and hopefully it will help some people. I used to race week in week out around UK, NPS's, Midlands etc. Then after a NPS at Ae forest I went...
