About Us: Who, What, Where and How?

LB is a portal and community for all bikers, publishing all the latest motorcycle news, reviews, interviews, industry-leading racing coverage of the BSB, WSB, MotoGP, British MX and World MX series' and a home for the brilliant London biking community.

We started out offering a service for bikers local to London, but as we developed our editorial aspect, it became clear that we were the first to bring high-resolution photography, advanced tagging and linking features to stories and the best high-resolution bike racing photographs on the web. Since then we've developed LB into a thriving and popular portal that appeals to people all over the world.

LB is owned and run independently by Media Panther Ltd, a UK registered company. It's managed by a core team of highly passionate bikers, they help to keep the site fresh, up to date, manage the contributors input and constantly develop the site technology. This core team is comprised of:

	Jay Adair MD & Technical Director Coming from a seasoned technical development background with over ten years of industry experience as an I.T professional, Jay brings a wealth of professional technical capability to LB, overseeing development of the technology that runs the website, whilst also helping to bring together all other operations and strategies. He’s a trackday junkie and also has a keen interest in photography.
	Tasha ‘Foxy’ Crook Chief Editor Tasha has directed and written for the magazine aspect of LB since it's inception in 2004. She has a vast wealth of experience with working with bikes, television, radio and previously, the LB Podcast. She brings a smile to all those who work with her and inspires others to have fun with what they do. Her dedication to delivering the best news and editorial for readers of LB is total.
	Patrick McConnon Community Manager Patrick has the thankless and often difficult task of managing the community forums so that an open and welcoming atmosphere is maintained and LB's standards are upheld. Patrick works with the Moderation team to ensure any issues are dealt with promptly and professionally. His infectious personality helps him hugely here and when not managing the forums, he's off adventuring around the world on his Honda.
	Andrew Harbron Director of Photography Andrew is responsible for LB gaining wide acclaim for pioneering our industry-leading racing photography. He's been with us since LB started in 2004 and has put in a dedication that is well beyond the call of duty. He's spent countless nights in the back of his car at race circuits in all weather, from swealtering heat to freezing snow, working with our other photographers and ensuring we publish the most unique and amazing BSB, WSB, British and World MX coverage. When not snapping, he's having a ball on his Triumph Daytona 675 or flying around the world.
