About Me
Well, I've been on Fetch for a number of years and have even run a few times during those years... but, in reality, I'm a mountain biker. I do a bit of road riding too, but my passion is the MTB. I do have some running shoes, though, so you never know, I might head out at some point in 2016. Last time I tried to run (in 2015), I injured my achilles, so have avoided running since. In 2015 I started doing the odd MTB race - in the fun category, of course - and loved it! I'm looking forward to building on this in 2016. Show More...

About Me

Well, I've been on Fetch for *a number* of years and have even run a few times during those years... but, in reality, I'm a mountain biker. I do a bit of road riding too, but my passion is the MTB.

I do have some running shoes, though, so you never know, I might head out at some point in 2016. Last time I tried to run (in 2015), I injured my achilles, so have avoided running since.

In 2015 I started doing the odd MTB race - in the fun category, of course - and loved it! I'm looking forward to building on this in 2016.

What's the biggest challenge that awaits you? Right now, it's the thought of cycling the South Downs Way on July 14th - 100 miles offroad with 4000m of ascent. It will be my biggest day ever in the saddle, if I can do it...
