Dream Bike:Not sure yet,  but I do really like 2007 Stumpy FSR Comp 2007 or something made up entirely out of Jeri Ryan

GOT IT!marksnewstumpy

(ed - another Super7 fan, thought I was the only one!)

Favourite bike clothes: Endura.

Favourite colour: White, black, gold frames with purple or red trim

(ed - and he likes PURPLE!)

Favourite food: Fish fingers with red sauce, Full English breakfast, Indian, Chinese, Italian

Favourite Colour: Sky Blue

Personal Likes: Zombie / apocalyptic films. Going out with team MAC. My kids’ giggles when I tickle them. Dalwhinnie whisky. Getting the X underneath my name on the ride list. Jeri Ryan.

History: Spent from 1999 to 2009 playing online MMORPG such as Asheron’s Call and World of Warcraft and got married and had 2 daughters somewhere in between that. Back into cycling again now as I did a little bit when I was single. I’m now thankful to Terry and all at the bike club for setting it up in the 1st place and putting so much time and effort into it.

Personal Dislikes: Electronic staplers, time pressure, bad customer service. Not been able to keep up on climbs…one day tho ….. one day.

Favourite trails: Not been to many but I thoroughly enjoy Chopwell Woods and use it to benchmark and test my progress and fitness levels. I remember when I first went there I couldn’t climb the 1st uphill from the bottom of the red trail without pushing. Now it’s no problem.

Future Targets: Own a sub 30lbs full suss and get some decent waterproof gear.

Lottery Win: Move to Los Angeles Hollywood Hills ( has to be some great singletrack in there !! ) and charter flights once a month so you can all come and stay over and ride in Calif with me and Jeri.

Personal Achievements: Gained 3rd, 3rd, 2nd places at the Canon You Can Award Gala dinners held in top venues in London staying in Park Lane hotels each time and winning a place for the True Connectivity Awards held in Rome for all the top achievers across Europe. Climbing the uphill from the bottom of the Choppers red trail. Getting my wife to go out with me in the 1st place.
