Dream ride day. Where would it be and who would be along for the ride? My dream ride would be in the Porte Du Soleil region of France with a group of equally keen riding mates for as long as possible. We would be mixing things up every other day, one day lift runs on Downhill Steeds, the other day reserved for all day Enduro epics!
Who or what got you into riding bikes? My parents from the beginning which led to countless street and bush adventures, whether it be moulding jumps from council dirt down the park, or bashing through the bush with my brothers and mates substituting suspension with deflated tyres, I was addicted from there on!
