HOW DID YOU GET STARTED OUT RIDING?

I've been riding for as long as I can remember, starting out with racing bMX then making the transfer to MTB when I began high school. From there I got really into the MTB scene and srated doing some local races. It all took off from there.

WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST BIKE?

Batman BMX Bike.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE PART ABOUT BIKING?

The variety of riding is a big one and to have the opportunity to travel the world riding and racing my bike is just crazy. Something that I would have never thought I'd end up doing.

YOUR BIGGEST CYCLING ACHIEVEMENT(S) SO FAR?

I had the opportunity to compete in the Pinkbike Academy reality TV show in 2022. I managed to make it all the way to the grand finale without being eliminated so I'm stoked on that. Results wise my best EWS finish to date is 43rd in Elite Men

WHEN YOU’RE NOT BIKING, YOU ARE...

Working as a builder to fund my biking career.

FAVOURITE TRAILS/TRACKS/RIDES?

Can't go wrong with riding at home in Alexandra, it's where I learnt all my skills and got into MTB, so it definitely means a lot to me. Whistler would be the runner up!

FAVOURITE MARLEEN PRODUCTS?

Bombproof DT Swiss Wheels and Maxxis rubber for maximum traction.
