Matt

Matt is one of the founding Molefathers of the Muddymoles, and is the designer and main administrator of the website.

An experienced rider, he still manages to fall off disconcertingly often. Nothing can account for this fact.

Current bikes include a Bird Aether 9, A Pace RC627 hardtail, a Cannondale Topstone gravel bike and a very niche Trek District 1 belt drive bike. A Merida Scultura Endurance bike provides road duties.

If you've ever wondered how Matt and the MuddyMoles got started, well wonder no more.

Ride report: Wednesday 14 March – High contrast

So last night we met up with the anticipation of some fine riding in the current warm spell. I fancied myself some China Pig, but having spent the past 120 miles or so on a 29er singlespeed I thought it was high time I dusted off my Inbred 26er.

Once in four years. Leap-day meant a leap for Summer Lightning, just about do-able on a long night ride.
