Age:

Height: 6'
Weight: 12 Stone
Mechanical Skills: Always used to have bangers until
my recent car. Learnt lots fixing them as well, but there usually is
a Halfords just down the road! Spent 4 years taking a Mechanical Engineering
degree. Am pretty handy with a spanner, some gaffa tape as well as the
old liquid metal!
Driving Experience: 8 years. Spend quite a lot of time
on the track in my Clio 182. Previously had a 205 Mi16 which was great.
Also drove a Caterham R400 round knockhill last year, as well as a Porsche
GT3. I also do lots of driving due to living 30 miles from the nearest
town.
Crashes: None
Convictions/Points: None
Currently Driving: Renaultsport Clio 182
Language Skills: Schoolboy French, which is mostly
forgotten I am sure. Will have to get by with frantic gesticulation
and hope it is not taken in the wrong way!
Special Skills: Being able to put up with Marks driving.
Goals for the trip: Get to Mongolia in 1 piece and
be back for the 28th to save what I am sure will be a crumbling business!
We have already made a decent start to charity raising, so hopefully
plenty of money will be going to good causes.
