A to B Profile - Peter Henshaw
NAME: Peter Henshaw
AGE: Probably 43
STATUS: Essential proof-reading abilities as David claims to be dyslexic. Also writes occasional A to B articles, makes judgments on test bikes and gives advice in specialist areas.
SPECIALIST SUBJECTS: Motorcycles, scooters, folding bicycles, tractors, trains and cars, in order of expertise.
BACKGROUND: Born and brought up in Weymouth, Dorset, and educated at Weymouth Grammar School, then Oxford Poly and Warwick University. Took things easy for a bit, then sub-editor at Haynes Manuals (yes, really), editor at Diesel Car and Motorcycle Sport magazines, before turning freelance.
TRANSPORT: Peter and partner Anna don't own a car out of choice, but would like everyone to know that living without a car is not at all easy. You have to choose between train, bus, an Enfield Robin diesel motorbike, Suzuki Burgman scooter, a tandem, two electric bikes, a couple of Bromptons, a Birdy, Bike Friday and assorted tourers. They reassure us, it's no picnic.
OTHER WORK/INTERESTS: Peter says he 'scrapes a living' writing about motorbikes, scooters, bicycles and tractors - even cars, sometimes. Also offers a sub-editing/rewriting/proof-reading service for any words on any subject.
