John Morin

John is originally from the Channel Islands but now calls Brittany home. A man of many talents he has worn many work hats over the years which always makes for amusing anecdotes. These days he works as a swim instructor, currency trader and musician. Previously he had worked as a driver in the Alps and that is where we first met John. He cut his teeth for us when he drove from Moscow to Barcelona in 3 days in 2014. His good humour and caring nature make him a valued member of the team.

First cycling memory

Receiving a green Raleigh Ranger for Christmas and my dad teaching me and my brother to ride outside our house.

Favourite bike

My old Claude Butler hybrid that I bought second hand for 80 sterling, because that's the one I rode up l'Alpe d'Huez :)
