Jeff has covered the 2010 Winter Games from the early days of the bid phase right through to present day with many insightful features and articles.

His weekly Road to 2010 column, Collector's Corner feature and Inside the Olympics blog have helped spread the word about the fun and the serious side of pin trading and collecting.

We look forward to many more excellent articles from Jeff on our 'collective' journey called the Road to 2010.
