About Me

I'm married and a father to Alfie who was born in 2000. Currently living near Cardiff in South Wales.
I'm used to travelling extensively so no job is to far away.

Carreer:
I started competing in Motorcycle events at 11-years of age. I won many regional events and after moving over to Mountain Biking in 1992 I won many international events, including the World Championship. I also won many British titles and held a number of World records.
My riding career lead me to performing in live action shows and gaining experience & opportunities in many diverse areas beyond my riding activity.
This includes working as a stunt man in TV and film. Presenting & acting on TV, in Radio and at live events.
