We’ve
being looking high and low for a nickname for Keith but have not been able
to find a suitable one. So for now, he is the only one that is without. He
thinks that he’s too old for one anyway. Unlike most of us, he has a
real job in the real world. He is currently the COO of IBX(International
Brunei Exchange). But we all agree that if he wasn’t doing that, he
would be a race car driver.
He’s
been riding for the past 30 something years but consistently for the past
12. He’s owned too many bikes in that time but he most recent ones are a
Trek 950, Merlin Mountain, AMP B5, Trek 5900, LeMond. His current rides
are a Gary Fisher Sugar 1, Seven Odanata and a Schwinn Cruiser Deluxe.
The
person that most influenced him to ride is an ex-girlfriend!
To ask
someone, who owns a custom built Seven Odanata, what their dream bike is
is asking for a beating. Keith is no different but wouldn't mind a
Pinarello Prince SL as a backup. Keeping with the Seven theme, his dream
mountain bike is a Seven Duo. Riding for 30 years and the best advice
he’s received is, “don’t fall” And this is the same advice that he
will pass on as his own.
His
best cycling moment was the view at the summit of a 'hill' in Bukit Tinggi
(Indonesia) that took more than 1 hour to climb.
His
worst cycling moments are when he doesn’t take his own advice and
crashes.
His
best bike related purchase is a King Ti bottle cage. And his worst? Air B
tubes.
His
best non-bike related purchase is a bottle of 1958 Chateau Latour. His
worst non-bike related purchase is a Nikon F801
