For outside interests, Susan seeks out adventure. In 1999, she spent three months riding her bicycle across the USA. These days, she can be found rowing weekly on the Thames (anything from singles to 8s, outside of lockdown), hiking up a rugged mountain in the Scottish Highlands, or sleeping in a tent in her back garden in London (which she did for 82 consecutive nights in lockdown v1.0 in search of a local adventure.)
