From: North Queensferry Scotland and London (and France)

Bikes: Custom (Colin Laing) 531c fast tourer/audax, 1964 Flying Scot Continental, 1995 Cinelli Supercorsa, Holdsworth Mistral single speed, Dahon Speed 6 (folder), Micmo Sirocco and a few more

been cycling since I was a toddler, it's just something I always have done.

Got serious about touring at 13 or 14, when I went on my wee bike for a day trip with some pals. Took sandwiches and cycled over the hills to a neighbouring village (other side of the world ), and got hooked.

I'm the ONLY one in our family who cycles at all.
