Dad of one who commutes to work via mountainbike on Strava. For fun adventures and non commutes I'm now trying Komoot! Looking forward to riding new trails and sharing some of my own.

4/2023 Update - Mtb / Bikepacking is now resuming after a long period off the bike due to a crash July 2022. Looking forward to enjoying & being able to ride through the rest of 2023!

A new chapter in my riding has begun - with a frame snap over Easter I've had to buy a new bike. Sad to see my old bike perish but this new beast feels so good!

Coast, Climbs & Cliffs on the Isle of Wight

MTB loop through Ryde, Sandown & Shanklin with lots of bridleways, tracks and cycle paths throughout. Fantastic views as I climbed up towards Culver. Tracks are very close to the cliff edge due to landslides in the first quarter of the climb. Also 2 gates either side of the Yarborough…

Heading across the IoW to pick up the ferry before starting the official adventure within the New Forest. Although many sections within this ride are enjoyable in their own right - the pre adventure!



A few sections, such as the main road leaving Newport (Forest Road) not particularly enjoyable. Diverting

An explore of the Southern part of the Isle of Wight - starting by the Donkey Sanctuary. Using the old railway line track, heading to Wroxall before the truly evil hill climb up to Stenbury Down. Then blessed with a downhill towards Steephill plus fab little track off the mainroad. Passing through St
