Tell Us More:
It all started as a youngster addicted to speed racing Go-Karts and Auto Grass with my family. I loved it, but I had a bad crash once that broke all the bones in my hand. The doctor suggested that I take up a different sport, one requiring the use of my hands as rehab, so I thought I would give mountain biking a try. I loved it instantly! My mum was the one that really got me into racing. She signed me up for a Mountain Bike Skills Clinic through the British Cycling Federation. While I was there I learned a ton about my bike and riding and I recieved an entry for my first local race.
Everything took off from that first race since I loved the speed and technical requirements of Downhill, and I loved the feeling of winning my 1st ever race! My success and racing career just took off from there. I placed top 10 at my first World Cup and top 5 at my 2nd, so I figured this must be what I was meant to do!

Anything else:
Yeah, Thanks to my family for all the support over the years. Both of my parents were a huge help when I was still a junior racing. They came with me every race weekend and set up the family camper van to support me and make racing affordable. My father even went one step further - when the time came to race my 1st National Championships I didn't have a full suspension bike that would get me to the podium so my dad took matters into his own hands and we worked out designs together and he built me my first proper DH race bike. The best part is I WON that National Champs on our home made bike!
They are both huge supports still of my career. Thanks Mum and Dad.
