I am 24 years old and have moved to Belgium to try and make it in the big world of Belgian 'cross. Here you can follow my progress on the international stage backed by an English sponsor Hargroves cycles.

Coming from a mountain bike and motorbike background I first discovered 'cross through a friend at school aged 12. Since representing Great Britain at junior 'cross worlds it has been a true love of mine.

However 2009 was my first year of being able to concentrate on the discipline fully and moved to Belgium, the home of 'cross, to pursue my dreams and goals.

2010 holds a whole new season and after last years steep learning curve I am back for more in Belgium to try and take another step towards the top of the sport.

Follow me on my journey its going to be one hell of a ride.

Thanks to all my sponsors in 2010 for making this happen.

Ian
