Staff Profiles and Bikes We Ride
Alastair Smart - The Fish Guru
Alastair is a local farmer's son turned marine biologist/aquaculturist. He has skipped through the heather all kilty in the Scottish highlands in Fort William for a few years and seems to end up in Greece a lot too. This explains a few things but not everything. He rides a brilliant red Spot Singlespeed 29er (which can be quite disheartening for those trying to keep up), a Turner Sultan 29er, a Knolly Endorphin, and an Edge Cycle XC Icarus. Has a thorough working knowledge of single malts, and muscle fibre dynamics in Atlantic salmon - an often lethal combination. Rides the trails most mornings so check in at the shop and come along with him for a start to the day that involves kangaroos, corellas and rubber.
Richard Bruce - The Cat
Rich is very light on his feet and his Ibis Mojo. Has the ability to push the limits and do some spectacular escape acts landing nimbly on his feet while his bike pirouhettes madly through the air. Likes the feel of salt in his hair and Caribbean rum and has combined the two in Atlantic voyages over the years. He rides an Ibis Mojo, and it is hard to get him on anything else.. oh yeh, he has his eye on a Mojo SL too. So, on the Ibis front he is the man to talk to. Knows it, loves it and can explain why he is a better person because of it, very convincingly.
Jake Millburn - The Mess
Jake is pretty famous already from days fixing bikes at Fitzroy Revolution in Melbourne with DC and the crew. He is a bmx riding, air loving, mate drinking, curly headed lover of rabbits and damper and is semi-sponsored by Bartagunyah Port (Vintage Shiraz). He is hooked on his Knolly Delirium and is building a mad Edge Cycle custom steelie. There is more info on him here and there.
Corin Adams - The Lover
Corin is also famous for his odd socks, aniseed root chewing, camp style free-riding manner - plus his desire to make the ultimate rabbit chamois with the fur on the inside. The other half of the dynamic duo - Fixated on Verity, Knolly Endorphin and Turner Sultan - a little more on the couple here.
And there is Pip, Kerri, Bernie, Phoebe, Zoe, Luca and Che.
and some new exciting news.
Sarah Holmes is our new racey girl sporting ergon and magura bits and staying well lubed with squirt. Check out more of Sarah here.
Sarah is moving quickly so lookout for the girl in the blue kanga jersey and ergon knicks camping in the wasabi green ergon tent. Hint: when taking photos of her racing, aim well in front so you end up getting more than just the back wheel in the shot!
