Charlie is a freelance writer and editor who got into BMX as a teenager before getting his first 'proper' bike (a 1992 Cannondale R400) aged 17. Since then, he's moved onto bigger and better things (well, something that's not as old as him) but always has his eye an bike n+1. A gravel/adventure rig is currently the apple of his eye. When not battling with inner-city riding in London, he enjoys escaping to the lanes of Hertfordshire and has dreams of doing a big bikepacking trip around the islands of the Inner Hebrides.
