Arriving at road.cc in 2017 via 220 Triathlon Magazine, Jack dipped his toe in most jobs on the site and over at eBikeTips before being named the new editor of road.cc in 2020, much to his surprise. His cycling life began during his students days, when he cobbled together a few hundred quid off the back of a hard winter selling hats (long story) and bought his first road bike - a Trek 1.1 that was quickly relegated to winter steed, before it was sadly pinched a few years later. Creatively replacing it with a Trek 1.2, Jack mostly rides this bike around local cycle paths nowadays, but when he wants to get the racer out and be competitive his preferred events are time trials, sportives, triathlons and pogo sticking - the latter being another long story.

This is fantastic. I’ve been carrying two helmets and switching as we go from pavement to gravel and back.
If you're in a gravel race most, actually all, of the grit is flying up off wheels in front; that peak will do sweet FA to prevent that.
Having said that, I do have a Mojito and it's an ace helmet (sans peak).
I think I'll probably just wear a cap underneath my normal helmet...
Luddite!
Amazing - yer telling me that I need a specific helmet to ride on gravel - you'll be telling me I need a specific bike next...
