A Word from Steve
Contributing to Bikerumor allows me to pursue my career in journalism in the most enjoyable way possible; writing about all things related to mountain biking, which is my number one hobby.
After graduating from university, I moved to a small town outside Whistler, B.C. and switched from riding BMX bikes to riding MTB. I then began contributing to local outdoors and tourism magazines before joining Bikerumor in 2015.
My personal interests include Mountain Biking, playing guitar and sampling craft beer!
