Matt Walker should have been in the start gate with a number one plate at Fort William this weekend. Unfortunately, as we all know, Fort William World Cup was cancelled due to Covid. This year would have been the 20th anniversary of the race at the Nevis Range.

Not too good about writing about myself, but not so bad at writing about other things. There was a time that I hated bikes, but then they became my life. Wouldn't be the person I am if I hadn't been on this journey. Here's to bikes, drinking tea and everything that comes with life on two wheels. I'm Lauren, I like bikes and writing about them. Always trying my best and up for adventures.
