Chris Williams
Meet Chris Williams, a passionate bike enthusiast who developed his love for cycling as a young child in the UK. From his early years, Chris found joy in constructing unique bikes by welding various parts together and creating dirt jumps in nearby fields. Riding on two wheels has always represented the epitome of freedom for Chris, whether he's exploring local trails or embarking on a trans-Canada journey to support BC Children's Hospital. There's no place Chris would rather be than on his bike, and he takes immense pleasure in sharing his enthusiasm for cycling, helping others build confidence and cultivate an appreciation for the exhilarating experience of off-road adventures. Let's celebrate the incredible world of bikes with Chris!
