Rob has been Content Director of MBR – and stablemates Bikeperfect, Cyclingnews and Cycling Weekly – since May 2021. Before that he spent two years in similar role at Bikeradar, which followed 12-years as Editor-in-chief of Cycling Plus magazine and eight years at Runner’s World. His first mountain bike was a Lee Cougan which got stolen from outside his house and he’s crashed a Specialized Stumpjumper into a canal. The MBR team is strangely reluctant to lend him an eMTB to test.
