    Mini Bio

    Born in Belgium but now living in the north of Scotland, I’m a true Flandrien with a deep passion for cycling.

    My heart lies in multi-day gravel and road bike adventures, and over the years, I’ve had the privilege of exploring the rugged terrains of Europe and Nepal. Yet, Scotland holds a special place in my heart, with its untamed landscapes and sense of adventure.

    From the quiet roads of the Highlands to the remote trails along the coast, Scotland’s magic is something I’m eager to share with fellow cycling enthusiasts. Let’s explore some of the most stunning cycling routes this country has to offer, together.
