In 1997 he captained the annual Athelings tour to Canada, and returned to Canada a year later as a member of the GB Under 25 team. In 2000 he was selected again for the GB Under 25 team to tour South Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alex shoots regularly for Cambridgeshire and this tour marks his first England tour cap. His rifle of choice is an RPA Quadlock with a Bartlein barrel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the age of 18 Alex moved to Los Angeles as part of a fruitless plan to become a rock guitarist. After an interesting degree in the UK, he then immediately moved to China for a large part of his 20&#8217;s for Chinese re-education; during this time he joined a Chinese motorbike gang and toured through most of northern China and the Gobi desert in a WW2 motorcycle with sidecar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alex returned to London last year and is happy at now being able to shoot more regularly again!
