RIDING STYLE: MTB Cross Country (XCC, XCO)

BIO

My passion for off-road riding started in 1993 the moment I walked into Bike Chain (Saint Piran Service Course). That discovery launched me into the local CMBC regional racing scene. As a young athlete, I secured success at both national and regional levels, proudly supported by Bike Chain and Diamond Back Racing (DBR).

After taking a hiatus from competition to focus on career and family, while never leaving the saddle. I made my return to the start line in 2020 with the Saint Piran Development Team. In recent years, I have continued to fly the flag for 05-03, competing in the Vets category regionally and contesting the Open category at select National events.

​While illness unfortunately cut my 2025 season short in May, the fire to compete hasn't dimmed. I am focused on returning to the regional XCO scene in 2026, representing Saint Piran Service Course and 05-03. I look forward to piloting my awesome Trek Supercaliber -between the tapes, driven by the challenge of the race and the pure joy of riding fast. (ish!)
