Interests

I have both my full car and motorcycle licence, both clean. I have had an active interest in motorcycles from a young age. I got my first motorcycle when I was just 8 years old and have ridden and worked with them ever since, I currently have a XV1900 Midnight star and a zzr1400.

I have built my own high performance PC and enjoy online gaming when I have the time.

I have my own property in Kendal which I bought to be closer to work, be able to help out with on call shifts and have no problem with working weekends and unsociable hours.
