Story

Thanks so much for visiting my page. 

I am once again taking part in the awesome Wings for Life #WorldRun on the 3rd of May 2015. Your sponsorship will help Wings for Life realise their ambition to find a cure for Spinal Cord Injury. Imagine how incredible that will be!

I have loved being a Professional Mountain Bike Rider for the past 20-years. A riding accident in September 2013 cut my career short, the resulting Spinal Cord Injury left me paralysed from the waist down. I cannot feel or move my legs, everyday is a physical and mental mission. It's tough...

However I still have a lot of energy for life, I focus on being positive and kicking this disability's arse! What better way to continue doing that than by supporting Wings For Life and doing the #World Run... Well I'll be rolling it ;-)
