First cycling memory
Cycling (with stabilisers!) along the country road outside our thatched cottage in Sussex, with our springer spaniel Becky at my heels
Favourite bike
I live in the mountains and have somehow – through a generous pal who’s good at building bikes – ended up with a Santa Cruz enduro bike. It’s been a slow journey getting to grips with it, and I’m not sure I’ll ever ride it to its full potential. But daring myself to tackle the trails around Morzine and Les Gets has been a lot of fun… and absolutely terrifying at the same time!
Top climb
I can’t say I’m much of a climber. My favourite place to cycle is around Lac Annecy in France – fairly flat, spectacular views and plenty of opportunities to stop for a swim!
One thing on your bucket list
I spent some time in Hanoi a few years ago and would love to venture into the rest of Vietnam by bike. The colours, food and culture were all amazing.
A special skill you bring on tour
I love helping people discover new places and experience the great outdoors. It’s a passion that has fuelled my career, from ski resort management to travel PR and marketing. So although I’m behind the scenes in the office at Ride and Seek, I hope that enthusiasm comes through – helping people find their next big adventure is a job I’m genuinely excited to do!
Favourite Ride & Seek tour gastronomic experience
The Brasseries Georges in Lyon, at the start of the Cro Magnon Tour, was a unique experience!
