I’ve always been a relatively quiet person, never the party type, or one for crowds, etc. As a child, you’ll find me buried deep in a novel, devouring books after books, lost in a fantasy of spy novels, adventure, and later moving on to true war stories.

Seems apocalypse is my inner fantasy, sounds a bit dark, but for some of us who fantasize a world in ruins like scenes from Mad Max, Water World, Walking Dead, etc. it’s how we find peace & adventure. Odd isn’t it.

Perhaps that is why I enjoy solo cycling, it allows me the opportunity to go exploring, combining my two passions. Naturally, I have a fascination for places that people don’t normally go to, whether they be abandoned buildings, slums, construction sites, or mountain bike trails that go on and on without the sight of another human being.
