Learnt to ride his brother's Raleigh Runabout moped around the back garden, and it was all downhill from there on. Peter was editor of Motorcycle Sport & Leisure for five years (the Cornwall era) and helped launch Motorcycle Voyager, editing that for a while as well. Since then he's been writing about bikes, cars, tractors and pushbikes for a living. In between the articles, he has found time to write 30-odd books (says he's not sure of the exact number) and has just published 'Motorcycling Abroad' with Haynes, a complete guide to taking your bike overseas. Currently in garage: Honda Transalp and Enfield Robin diesel. He lives in Dorset with wife Anna and an unfeasibly large collection of bicycles.
