Gaynor Armitage, 44, has lived in the Newport area for 22 years, and now works as a Partner at an Old Harlow accountancy firm. A diminutive five feet tall, Gaynor is not what you’d expect in a hardcore biker, but this is a hobby she has had since childhood. “I was always a bit of a tomboy as a child, so bikes and cars had much more appeal than dolls,” Gaynor admits.
