SHEFFIELD mountain biker Steve Peat is one of those characters you just can't help but envy.

A laid-back, relaxed kind of bloke who's great at what he does, he lives out in the midle of nowhere in a lovely spot, seems happy in his life with a wife and a young son and he's got it by doing what he likes doing. Good for him
.
He started by doing daredevil stunts with his older brothers in Chapeltown as a boy and he's gone on to be three-times world champion.
What he also has is an amazing likeness to Rhys Ifans, the lanky blond Welshman from the films Twin Town and Notting Hill.

I mentioned it to him and he's heard it all before.

Steve said: "When Notting Hill came out and before that with Twin Town people were telling me I looked like him.

"No-one has ever mistaken me for him as far as I know and I've never met him but people look at me a bit strange sometimes like they might think that they know me."

What do you think?
