Richard has 20 years of experience as a journalist and editor, and spent most of that time geeking out on market-leading sci-fi and fantasy magazine SFX. Since standing down as editor to go freelance in 2019, he’s continued to write about Star Wars, Star Trek and other movies and TV shows for the likes of SFX, Total Film, GamesRadar+ and TechRadar. He also played a pivotal role in the launch of outdoor site Advnture as managing editor, and regularly helps out with production on Bike Perfect. Much as he loves being in the saddle, Richard realized early on that he prefers going up hills to down them – especially when there are trees involved.
