Rebecca Bland

Position: Freelance writer

Mostly rides: Yorkshire Moors

Height: 5ft 5in (166cm)

Rebecca’s been riding (and falling off) bikes since she was old enough to whip her stabilisers off and hurtle into a rose bush straight off the bat. She’s never raced mountain bikes (yet) but dabbled in road and time trialling for a bit before realising she prefers rides with cake stops. Although she’s been riding them for decades, she’s only been writing about bikes for four years, for publications like Move Electric, Ebiketips, BikeBiz and others. After discovering the joy of electric bikes, she’s been reviewing them and using them as a way to explore hilly Yorkshire. Terrified of drops over 10cm in height, you’ll likely find her psyching herself up to hurtle down Hully Gully at Gisburn or trekking over the North Yorkshire Moors trying to teach her border collie the tricks of the trail dog trade.
