For me, tutoring is very rewarding, helping an everyday Rider become safer and more proficient, then gaining their RoSPA Advanced Rider qualification.
I really enjoy touring, particularly by motorbike with Pauline, my wife. I’m fascinated by the sheer variety of ‘places and faces’ around the world and the beauty of our planet. I’m also intrigued by the vast variety of products we as a nation still produce, and the ingenuity with which they are made, but I suppose that follows on from being an Engineer. I love learning and always aim for something new each day.
Sailing and things to do with the water are our other main interests. A good pint is never very far from reach, with East Anglian beer as some of my favourite, Trawler Boys being the best in the whole of Christendom.
Tastes in music are to say the least, eclectic. From Vivaldi to the Clash, and all stops in between
i've been riding on the road for 15 years now, covering between 15 and 20k a year on 2 wheels. For me bikes aren't just a hobby they're my transport. Alongside Rospa I'm an observer for North Wales Police bikesafe, ride for Blood Bikes Wales and I run Bikerdown for North Wales Fire and Rescue Service. When not riding a bike for Observing I love touring and distance riding. If I'm not on the bike you'll find me in the garage messing with bikes.
I currently ride a ZZR1400, Enfield Himalayan and a Fazer 1000.
When I'm not tutoring, I enjoy touring Europe, taking in a motogp along the way, as well as touring the UK, Scotland being one of my favourite places.
It's very rewarding being a tutor and passing on what I've learnt over many years of advanced training myself.
Join up and get more out of your riding.
After taking numerous Advanced Motorcycle courses I became so much more aware of the importance of having these skills and wanted to keep my levels as high as I possibly could not just for me but for my family, as in life I believe we are always learning and there is always room for more.
I am a great believer in sharing knowledge and understanding, this is why I love tutoring and helping people achieve their goals to become safer and more confident on our busy roads and at the same time making sure my associates are taking there new advanced skills in at there own pace which I feel is very important and valuable, as we all want the best end result.

bikes, and be it off road or on-road, rarely have I been without two wheels. Currently it’s a
BMW R1250RT and a Triumph 1050 Speed Triple. From the military to the oil /gas and
mining industry I’ve had a well-travelled working life and currently run my own business in
North Wales. I’m actively involved with Bloodbikes Wales as a rider and Trustee and remain

As an Advanced Tutor I look forward to helping people achieve their motorcycling goals , so
