George Scott
Head of content
George Scott is BikeRadar's head of content, overseeing web, video and podcast content. He has been writing about bikes for more than a decade and riding them for much longer. George is a road cyclist at heart but caught the gravel bug in 2020 after buying his Mason Bokeh and now rides little else. As a cyclist, he’s happiest exploring new gravel trails around Bristol or riding in the mountains, even if he can't climb them quickly. George studied journalism and cut his teeth at Eurosport before joining RoadCyclingUK in 2010. He became editor of RCUK in 2014 and, after a spell as a freelance journalist writing for Cycling Plus, Rouleur, Cyclist and T3, joined BikeRadar in 2019.
