Bikefitting is an absolute dream for me because I get to nerd out on cycling while helping others to enjoy cycling more in the process. I’ve ridden competitively from the age of 14 and now compete at elite level in triathlon; this experience, combined with my formal training at Torke bikefitting is what sets me apart – I love my subject and I’m educated in it.
My style of bikefitting is very down to earth and approachable. Bikefitting is a complex topic but I like to explain the reason for changes as I’m making them so that my customers end their fits feeling like they’ve both understood – and contributed to – the process. If you’re looking for an angle-measuring gadget-driven fit that spits out some numbers, look away now! What you’ll get instead is a considerate approach, attention to detail and a fitter who knows the numbers but most importantly listens to the needs of the rider.
Alongside bikefitting, I coach a select group of athletes to achieve their goals in triathlon. Whether you’ve never raced before, or are looking to qualify for the World Championships I take equal pleasure in helping people to get the most out of themselves. Keeping things small scale and working closely with each athlete is something I believe to be truly important; it’s not unusual for me to communicate with each athlete multiple times per day and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Where off-the-shelf plans are rigid and generic, I write workouts to athletes’ personal needs taking into account their lifestyle as well as modifying the plan when there are (inevitable) bumps in the road. ​
