Sam Fox started riding when he was around three years old.

It wasn't until he was eight would the Tasmanian compete in his first race, a twilight crit in Launceston and from there he was hooked on mountain biking.

Sam's first major victory on the racing scene was in 2017 where he stunned the field to claim the Junior Men XCO Oceania title in Toowoomba.

He  would continue to podium in the following years in the Junior and Under 23 ranks.

However it was in 2021 where Sam broke through for his first Australian title taking out the Under 23 Men XCO crown at the National Championships in Maydena. 

Sam has competed at World Championships and achieved his best World Cup result of 13th at Albstadt, Germany in 2022.
