I'm excited - and nervous - to reveal that my first book, Riding Out, will be published in Spring 2022.

It's about a 3,427-mile bike ride around Britain at one of the toughest periods in its history.

It's also a very personal journey through loss, love and anxiety.

"Urban conservationists may feel entitled to be unconcerned about food production because they are not farmers. But they can't be let off so easily, for they are all farming by proxy."
