hamsterley f+f Harry

Loves all things bike, which basically means he rides downhill, trials, dirt jump, a bit of XC and even went on a road ride once. Website guy, mechanic and just about anything else you need in one convenient package.

Saturday boy and skinny jean wearing bmx doode.

The Boss … when Claire’s not around anyway ! Dabbled in road biking for years and mountain biking for a few less years. A handy orienteer and off-road route planner and does a bit of road and fell running too. Trying to do the London Marathon in 2010. Also did a few Triathlons last year (and 20 years ago !)

An Intensive Training scheme is required for all of the above and it’s just as well that I have selected fantastic staff to cover for me when I can’t get to the shop.

The Real Boss. Keeps us all sane, is the holder of the purse strings and controller of rational thinking. A keen cyclist and runner when she gets the time to get out. You definitely want Claire on your side and in your team, she’s THAT good!

Jim F

Workshop Manager, Cytech level 2 qualified and Mavic Tech trained.
Lives for trying new equipment and riding down hills as fast as he can ( probably wont beat you to the top of one though )

Chris F

Jim’s Dad! Has been known to answer to Crusty on occasion. Solid mechanic and all round nice guy. Probably qualifies as more of a roadie these days but still has the skills to pay the bills on a mountain bike too.

Wendy E

Male Readers: What’s more threatening? A woman who can beat you up or one who can out ride you? Well your nightmares have come true! Wendys small but “she snap you like twig”! Her names not Rachael Atherton but she’s ridden harder and for longer than most of the staff and male clientele. Rejoice, the Apocalypse has come and Wendy’s on the 5th horse
