I am a Professional Mountain Bike Racer and Ski Instructor based in Champéry, Switzerland. I teach skiing and Biking for the Freeride Company in Champéry. I am currently Masters Downhill World Champion for the third time, European and British Champion in Down Hill Mountain biking. I run a Bike Guiding and Skills School here during the summer months.
I race and represent Great Britain along with sponsors . My bikes are superb in every way, a Nuke Proof Mega and Scalp. Both equipped with the new 2012 Rock Shox World Cup Boxxers and Lyrics, Avid Elixir Brakes and Sram X-10 components. I am decked out with Blue Grass pads and helmets, Eyewear and Goggles from Adidas. Intrepid Apparel. SueMe bamboo underwear, Buffs and Sealskinz keep me dry with waterproof socks and gloves.
Intrepid Apparel are new sponsors this year and new kids on the block in every respect. Based in the UK they are guys close to my heart producing a fantastic line of riding wear, gillets, shorts, softs shells and T Shirts. They are fully behind me and hoping to produce a rainbow stripey jersey this season. Check out www.intrepidapparel.co.uk and follow them on Facebook and Twitter.
Follow me at Twitter and Facebook too for all race reports, tweets and fun
Hi Petra,
I hope your well and enjoying all this show, It certainly made Frome very pretty but killed all our bike sales, fortunately its all melted so hopefully things will return to normal!
Anyway the reason for this email is to ask if your happy for us to put you on our website (wwwlive2ride.co.uk) as one of our friends?
Pls let me know.
Regards Richard
