About Tom
I'm a soon-to-be Dr (I've just finished my PhD) and born and bred in Leicester. I love all things bikes so much that my insta name is tomlikesbikes... and I enjoy bouldering and spending time with friends and family.
About Emma
I'm a SENDCo who dabbles in teaching maths in a wonderful secondary school. I love my family and friends and thankful for everyone who is part of my life. I enjoy sports (when I'm not injured...)
