    Thomas Walker

    Originally from the UK and now happily settled in Bonn, Germany, Tom spends most of his time chasing gravel routes, learning new languages, and getting slightly lost in the process – usually aboard his trusty Grand Canyon. When he's not on two wheels, you’ll probably find him strumming a guitar (with enthusiasm, if not precision), heading to a local indie or pop punk show, or out for a run through the forest.
