My cycling background: I’ve ridden for over 15 years starting off on the MTB before moving over to the road. I was lucky enough to race amongst some great fields over the years. I’ve dialled back the competitive side of my riding nowadays and love to explore new places. I’ve led groups, tours throughout Australia and my main interest in cycling is currently exploring the world through bike packing.
