Neil Smith

At the age of 5 Neil got his first bike. At the age of 13, Neil had his first taste of alcohol... and so it continued until he was around 35, almost every weekend... the drinking alcohol that is 😊 (with a bit of cycling in between). Eventually, he decided enough was enough, stopped partying, trained harder and has been loving triathlon and endurance events since. The highlight being an Ultramarathon in the forest and Challenge Roth full-distance triathlon. He lives in Amsterdam with his girlfriend, son and dog.

Rides: Canyon Aeroad (Road); Kuota Kharma (Road); Canyon Ultimate (Road); Canyon Exceed (MTB); Scott Scale 50 (MTB); Canyon Grizl (Gravel)
