No. Years Paddling: OMG 32!
Random Fact: I got married on the SS Great Britain in Victorian Costume. About Me: I was born in Bradford on Avon and have always lived in this area of Wiltshire. Worked in mechanical engineering since leaving school. Married Nicky in 1999 just before the turn of the millennium. Early paddling career was all about marathon and sprint racing, with a little whitewater racing thrown in. Had some success with several national championship sprint medals at junior level, and briefly reached division 2 marathon at the tender age of 16 years old before a succession of injuries and the discovery of beer ended my meteoric rise. Later on I tried a couple of seasons of Slalom and some canoe polo whilst beginning to experiment with whitewater paddling. These days coaching and whitewater paddling occupy most of my time on the water, with the occasional return to the long pointy boats. Now a level 3 Inland Kayak Coach, 4 star Whitewater Kayak Leader, and a UKCC Level 2 Trainee Paddlesport Coach.
