About Me

- General cyclist, reluctant runner, keen kayaker, trad climber, avid adventurer. Fortunate to know a bunch of great people who love getting outside. Cyclists, runners, kayakers, climbers, surfers, geo-cachers, & para gliders. That's the beauty of living on a 4 mile x 8 mile rock in the English Channel. The other advantage? Nowhere is more than 20 minutes away.
