Jo grew up in Bradford, West Yorkshire surrounded by some of the finest landscapes in England, characterized by old mills, big hills, and many a cobbled lane. As a youngster with only an old, steel-framed bicycle with very few gears, she soon learned what hard work and determination meant when attempting to cycle up and over some of the most demanding climbs in Yorkshire. These days, Jo is still tackling the hills and dales of Yorkshire and has joined DuVine to share her love for Britain’s pristine cycling. In Jo’s free time, she challenges herself by dismantling, servicing, and reassembling her bikes, as well as teach children and adults the essentials of bike riding, bike maintenance, and road safety.
