I'm Ash, the riding, driving guy from Cape Town

Hello Steemians

I've put out a few posts prior to this in order to try and get a feel for the platform, but it feels time to introduce myself officially.

By day, I'm a motoring writer, specifically with a performance bent. I'm the track ace at Cars.co.za having honed my skills on the tracks in the UK where I was coached and trained by some of the best in the business at Silverstone. I won the Nissan GT Academy back in 2012 and spent a year training and racing around the UK, winning or standing on the podium just about everywhere we went.

By the rest of the day, I'm a bicycle rider. I ride bikes as much as I can with a crew that like to dish out pain as much as possible. I'm more of a mountain biker than road rider, but take my riding relatively seriously. Aiming for 10000km this year and some really good results along the way.

I post about cars and bikes, in a mostly lighthearted way. I hope to keep the content coming for people to enjoy. Looking for other cyclists and motoring Steemians to connect with so throw me a comment in the bottom and I'll look you up and throw out a follow.
