I have an intrinsic desire, will and ability to succeed. The foundation of my motivation is very easy to pinpoint. At a time when my peers were furthering their academic education, I concentrated on building the necessary experience and skills, which would allow me to realise my dream of becoming a professional motorcycle racer. I am fortunate to have a very supportive family who, whilst acknowledging my successes, are very good at keeping me firmly grounded.
Outside of motorcycle racing I am a keen cyclist and compete regularly for the Lakeland Cycle Club. I also enjoy running, swimming, gym and various watersports.
