Clive's father's family were descended from Scottsh marauders - the McMavins - who came down to first Guisborough then Ripon. Clive's mother's side hail from Lowestoft, the most easterly town in England. He spent most of his younger years in Harrogate, Yorkshire. More than twenty years ago he moved to Glasgow in the west of Scotland, a city he now regards as home.
Clive has had a bike since he can remember. He also had a yearning for travel since his earliest childhood memory - when he was four he had a family holiday at Ardrossan in Ayrshire, and there was a railway level crossing at the end of the road where he would stand watching the trains roar by, wanting to be on them, wanting to know where they were going.
Clive has little technical knowledge about bikes or cycling, he simply sees a bike as a means to an end. You don't need fancy gear to have a good day out - all you need is the will to do it, and the right attitude.
