Richard Browne

I am a writer and geek - sadly geeking pays more money than writing so I seem to spend more time doing that.

I’m an old fashioned guy and because I wear lots of tweed and have (occasionally experimental) facial hair, people sometimes accuse me of hipsterism. Listen buddy, hipsters are referred to as Dicks by people because they all copied me (the shortened version of Richard is *****- get it? No? Oh, OK). Rant over then.

I’m 51, married to a retired priest and have a daughter.

I’ve always love bikes and first ride aged 8 on fields behind our house and have owned many bikes, lots of which are now ridiculously expensive classics. 350 LC anyone? Z1?

I love working with my hands and restored my Bantam from the ground up.

You can frequently find me in the garage with a spanner in one hand and a cup of tea in the other.
