Huw Oliver
Huw’s favourite thing to read is a map – when he moved across the border to Scotland, the first thing he did was buy one. Bikepacking trips are a good way to check that the map wasn’t lying, and the resulting adventures have taken him to nearly every bog in Scotland, as well as Patagonia, arctic Lapland and Greenland. The odd bikepacking race thrown in keeps him honest, and he holds the course record on his native Cairngorms Loop. More recently, the addition of a packraft meant that even the blue bits of the map are fair game. Occasionally, he works as an outdoor educator and mountain bike coach, hoping to show other people why they ought to read more maps, too. His Instagram is @topofests.
