I have a Kia Sedona 7 seater for the family and an aluminium town bicycle (very low mileage lol) plus my feet. I do lots of walking/running at work going to see staff and sick patients

If you could have any bike what would it be?
Tough one M, I really don't have a "must have bike". I would like to ride lots of bikes:

Any bike that works is good for me.
Most of all I would love a go on dirt

Which invention in history would you most like to have come up with?
The wheel and then patent it

If you ruled the world, what is the first thing you would outlaw?
Robert Mugabe

If you were forced to entertain us all at the Forum Christmas party - what would your talent be?
I would cook all of he food as I spent thirteen years as a chef working to Michelin star level.

Snow or beach?
Snow, I hate sunbathing, love swimming.

Windows or Mac?

F1 or NASCAR?
F1

Is this to kiss?

Comedy or thriller?

Hi Defy,
I had a motorcycle wreck in 1998, it was the turning point that I was looking for in my life.
I went to an interview in a wheel chair and got a job as a casting tech. I was then really lucky to get selected and funded to do my degree.
Oh yeah also met my fantastic wife.
I switched from one form of butchery to another lol.

You also worked in a kitchen and now your in corporate business. Catering sure teaches you alot.
