HOW DID YOU GET STARTED WORKING IN THE BIKE INDUSTRY?
I was helped out by a local shop whilst I was in High School which offered me an after-school job for a few hours a week and then it went from there. Haven't looked back since!
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE PART ABOUT BIKING?
Getting to explore all the trails from all over the country and the people you meet! The views are the main appeal but can't beat a loamer after a bit of rain.
FAVOURITE TRAILS/TRACKS/RIDES?
Anything in Queenstown, but locally Cheeseman DH is the best!
WHEN YOU'RE NOT BIKING, YOU ARE...
Probably fixing my bike or attempting to be good at Frisbee Golf....
TOP PRODUCT PICK FROM THE MARLEEN WAREHOUSE AT THE MOMENT:
DT SWISS 350 Hubs, Best in the game!
CYCLING ACHIEVEMENTS:
Winning NZ Enduro 2019 & 2020 Linger & Die Enduro but overall probably getting to Race the Enduro World Series in Rotoura 2017 and EWS 100 in 2019 to take a stage win is up there too!
