I like to describe myself as an entrepreneur, author, photographer, investor and keen cyclist.
Yes. I did share in building a new business as an entrepreneur. The business eventually grew to 750 staff in 16 offices across 10 different countries. And we built it in 6 years. I call that entrepreneurial.
Yes. I have co-authored two books. One is about Technology in Banking, telling the story of the evolution of British banking. The other is a collection of inspirational stories called The Inspiration Bible. My piece in the book is the story of how I became Inspired to Ride.
Yes. I do take photographs. Mostly I photograph Australian native orchids. I go looking for them when I am cycling or when I am out in the bush. And I publish them on Hive.blog, a cryptocurrency-based blogging platform and I get paid to do that. You will find those under Daily Ramblings in the menus above
Yes. I do cycle. More than that I like to cycle long distances and have thus far cycled across Australia 7 times from side to side in different directions and top to bottom. In the last few years, I have cycled all the way down the East Coast in stages. Add that in as one trip = 8 times across Australia. More than that I like to cycle for charity and have raised thousands of dollars for Kids Cancer and for Disabled Kids through my cycling journeys.
Yes. I am an investor. Since 2012, I have taken over management of all of my portfolios. I set out to invest in all instruments across all geographies. And I write about that too with over 700 investing journals published on Hive.blog. You will find those under the Investing Blogs menu item above.

What disqualifies me?
