Tell us about yourself, Who you are and what makes you so rad?

I'm a guy who likes to ride his bike.

Contests or just riding? Why?

Both. I love racing and regularly race everything from DH to Cross Country, even the odd road race. Enduro would be my favorite discipline, but I've learnt that you can find joy in nearly every ride you do, no matter what bike you're on.

What’s your all time favourite mountain biking trip?

One particular trip to Finale Ligure, Italy, will always stand out in my mind. To be honest any time you're in Italy and on a bike, it's good.

What do you love about riding?

The challenge of it, how difficult and complex it can be at times, and yet it can be so simple and beautiful. Chris Panozzo

What you’re most proud of achieving through riding?

Cycling has introduced me to pretty much everyone of my closest friends. If I didn't have that, maybe I would have never met them.

One tip you would give to a grom wanting to become a pro rider like yourself.

There is no such thing as perfect. Also practice lots.
