| Favourite group: |

| Favourite Movie: |
Holy Grail |
| What I Got in trouble for as a child: |
Just about everything! I remember my
first (and only) experience with the police was when I got caught
riding a dirt bike on the road as a 14 year old. What really annoyed
me was the fact that the bike was totally knackered and I couldn’t
out run them. |
| Favourite holiday spot: |
Vermont, USA |
| Favourite Race City: |
This year we are contesting the European
Superstock Championship and my first race in Italy was at Monza. I
loved the circuit and loved Milan. |
| Favourite Track: |
In the UK, Thruxton and Brands Hatch.
On the European scene it’s got to be Monza. That circuit just blows
the mind! |
| Most memorable achievement: |
Definitley my first podium in 2002, at
Donington Park in British Supersport. May there be many more to come. |
| Racing Hero: |
Ben Bostrom and Kevin Schwantz. |
| Greatest Influence: |
Dad. |
| Significance of Helmet Design: |
It’s an adaptation of the team’s piranha
logo. It’s a predator just like me. I have my name in Egyptian hieroglyphics
on the back. |
| What Would I like to do after I retire: |
It’s a long way off but it’s pretty
impotant that whatever I’m doing leaves me financially secure and
with as few worries as possible. It’d be nice to develop my own
race team one day and guide young riders through the ranks.
Thinking about it I’m not so sure running
my own team will leave me financially secure and with no weorries!
