Adventure - When Good Things Happen
The Green Man (or Fella) is a symbol of rebirth, representing the cycle of new growth. I believe in the transformational potential of upskilling people to embark on outdoor adventures and connecting with other adventurers to create self-sustaining communities to live well, in this case through all things cycling and hiking.
Upskilling includes courses in cycle confidence training, cycle maintenance, navigation, wild campng, group rides and hikes, underpinned with a person-centred and environmental ethos.

Bikepacking Adventures
Join me for regular unforgettable bikepacking adventures through the stunning landscapes of Devon. Experience the thrill of cycling combined with the joy of camping under the stars while exploring beautiful trails.
Group hikes and navigation skills
Group hikes are a great why to become or stay fit and healthy, meet new people and experience the beautiful natural environment here in Devon.
Beginner navigation courses can take place in a local park or School grounds before then advancing to the moorland environment.
Learning to navigate across a landscape can be a life changing skill in terms of opening up a world of adventures.
Community Rides/Group Rides
Green Fella Adventures run Community Rides aimed at anyone in the community who wants to get out on two wheels, connect with the great outdoors and meet other cyclists. Rides are at a chilled 'party-pace', it's non-competitive cycling with an emphasis on living well, nature connection and social connection.
it's about fun, exploration and adventure, but the underlying mission is also about tackling loneliness, depression, anxiety and living healthier lifestyles. we're social animals, let's face it we need one another and bicycles are a great ice-breaker and unifying force for good.
Group rides are also available, get in touch you're a group looking for adventure.
Outsider Community Rides/Hikes
These rides are for people who (like me) may feel they are 'outsiders' or who don't fit in with the mainstream or what others call 'normies'. (FYI 'normaility' is a myth - there no such thing).
These rides are all about creating community and they reflect my own particular interests and lived experience, as such these rides are likely to take place once a month and they will be low cost to cover basics.
Rides include
ADHMTB - Mountain biking for ADHD people
MTBegan - Vegan Mountain Bikers
Death Riders - A Sort of Death Cafe on two wheels.
Cycle Mechanic Services
The bicycle is an amazing you powered machine that leads to so many adventures. As a mechanic I can keep your steed in good working order and or bring it back from the dead (within reason!). In addition to a repairs and maintenance service the Green Fella (yours truly) offers maintenance course - again it's all about upskilling.
