About Me

I’ve been racing since 2008 and set up Rideabout as a coach in 2012. I have a strong background in racing endurance disciplines (MTB XC, Road, TT & Cyclocross). I have coached a wide range of riders, helping juniors to achieve wins at a National level as well as coaching Masters riders to complete their first UCI Gran Fondo race.
