Skin. The name speaks for itself. The rider is all skin and bones (and some muscle, we guess). His current job is to be a all skin and bones (and some muscle, we guess). His current job is to be a guide of young and impressionable minds or also known as a teacher. But he is quite certain that if that didn't work out that he would be a bike courier or something that's bike related and probably up the establishment's you know what. guide of young and impressionable minds or also known as a teacher. But he is quite certain that if that didn't work out that he would be a bike courier or something that's bike related and probably up the establishment's you know what. (his words not ours)

Skin has been riding since he’s been walking (or so he would like to think) so he had too many bikes to list. His current survivors are an alu Giant and Cro-Moly Mongoose. Skin claims that he settled on these cause they're cheap and do the job but for a time he was trying every material and bike design, so maybe he just got tired. When asked who influenced him to ride the most, he said ‘anyone that commutes and believes in a better form of transport than tin cans on four wheels.’ (Check out this if you don't believe him)

As far as his dream bikes are concerned, Skin has this piece of wisdom, ‘If you could dream about a different girl every night, why then should you restrict your dreams to one bike. sort of spoils the whole concept of dreaming eh?’ Phew, deep.

Skin is a firm believer in the art of spin. As such he will force this concept on anyone he rides with. So watch out.

His best cycling moment was a great bike ride from Sydney to Melbourne. And his worse moments are usually associated with getting sick and not riding. But for some reason, he seems to encounter this a lot more then the average person. Coincidence? Your guess is as good as ours.

His best bike related purchase is a helmet. And his worst bike related purchase was a car for the roof racks for the bike. That’s right car FOR  bike. This guy has his priorities right. After all that, there is nothing left for a best non-bike related purchase. But he has had some wasted cash that went to cinema tickets to bad movies.
