About Tracey

Tracey Croke is an award-winning travel Journalist addicted to roughty-toughty adventure and galavanting on her mountain bike.

She has an uncanny knack of following whims and getting lost.

Thanks to this expertise, Tracey has hiked through the mountains of post-conflict Afghanistan, searched for rideable mountain bike tracks in the Ethiopian Highlands and been rescued by nomads in Kyrgyzstan’s Talas Range

Luckily, her woeful map-reading skills are overlooked as long as she brings back a good story.
