About Me

Howzit! I'm a moto-journalist, and the editor of Freerider MX Magazine. I worked on Australasian Dirt Bike Magazine (ADB) after moving to Australia in 2003, but have since moved up to the Gold Coast with my beautiful wife Adeline to take on the role as editor of Freerider. Tell ya what - Gold Coast is crap. Don't come here. Seriously, it's rubbish. I'd much rather spend an hour crammed into a stuffy Sydney train breathing someone else's bad breath than live near the beach where it's more laid-back and always warm. I'm originally from New Zealand and miss it heaps, but at the same time, life is pretty good when you get to take photos, test bikes and write about the sport you love for a living! Yeew!
