Loves all things with 2 wheels. Started young scouting out new places to jump his BMX. But his riding world really changed when he got his first MTB. He got in to races, from MTB to ROAD and Criteriumns. Started working for a bike shop in 94 that gave him a sponsorship. Over the years he acquired lots of experience working with well respected mechanics and shop owners.

Rhiannan rediscovered her love for Mountain Biking back in 2014, and we can definitely say she has the bug for it as she rides anything from single track to DH, competing in Gravity Enduro Events, with aspirations to one day get to an EWS event. Don’t count her out if you need advice on Road Bikes though, as she dabbles in a bit of that too!
Rhiannan joined us in Feb 2017, but prior to this she was a long term friend of the store and joins us with a passion to help and encourage women to get into cycling.

As an avid mountain man, Pete has spent the last 23 years in the Snow industry in retail and freestyle coaching, chasing winters around the world. Only recently getting back into a mountain bike, he was immediately hooked and now can’t go a week without getting out onto the trails to explore all that is to offer on the coast. Gravitating towards anything with jumps and is steep and chunky, you’ll probably hear him whooping like a howler monkey in the forest!
