The Island of Lost Trails

As co-founder and inspiration behind Trailsurfers, Richard has spent 30 years exploring Asia's wildest terrain in search of its best singletrack, from humid jungles to high-altitude mountain passes. As a certified Level 1 Mountain Bike Coach (GSMBC) and Wilderness First Aider (NOLS), he is trained to handle the unexpected when the trail bites back. Having discovered mountain biking in the Surrey Hills, UK, during the early 90s, combining his passions for travel, cycling and the outdoors was inevitable. For Richard, MTB is the ultimate blend of fitness, technical skill and pure adventure. From local trail rides, to big bike park days and epic expeditions, Richard believes that any day on a bike is a good day.

Jamie is a Co-founder of Trailsurfers, where he manages our Singapore school programmes and serves as a lead guide for our young riders. He's spent over a decade exploring trails around the world, from the forests of Singapore to the mountains of Nepal and Switzerland, and is a certified Level 1 Mountain Bike Coach (GSMBC) and Wilderness First Aider (NOLS). For Jamie, the appeal of mountain biking is the mix of fitness, skill and adrenaline, plus the chance to spend time in nature. His preferred styles of riding are cross-country or enduro and he's also an occasional roadie. As well as coaching for Trailsurfers, he enjoys spending weekends guiding his own kids around the local trails.
