THE TROY BAYLISS STORY: 1963-90's

Troy was born on the 30th March 1969, the only son of Warren and Lorraine and his childhood years were spent on the family farm in Taree, New South Wales, Australia with his sister, Jana.
At the age of six, Troy’s father gave him a “Monkey” bike to ride around the farm and by the age of 10 he had decided it was time to go racing! For the next four years he traveled the circuits with his father racing in motocross and dirt track events.

His love of action sports then led Troy towards surfing and he spent all his spare time on the beach. He met his future wife, Kim, at the age of 18 and his craze for physical fitness made him turn his competitive spirit towards cycle racing. What kind of cycle racing? All kinds… mountain bikes, speed trials, triathlons. If it had pedals, Troy raced it!
