About David Bavin-Hobbs

I am an official Komoot route and collection editor, and founder of the social cycling community Dirty Wknd (komoot.com/user/dirtywknd). I love to explore by road, gravel and mountain bike, as well as hike in new and exciting areas. Growing up in the UK I have hiked and cycled all over the country, especially Scotland where my family hails from.
