James Howell-Jones

Junior Writer

James joined the team in 2023. Described by colleagues as ‘indispensable’, ‘effortlessly cool’ and ‘a real ace up our sleeve’, James is widely regarded to be one of the best things to happen to GCN since we came up with the ‘Retro vs Modern’ format.

As well as writing his own author page bio, he writes editorial pieces and guides. Working with the rest of the editorial team, he ensures the GCN site is a valuable resource for all cyclists.
