Dermott Kelly

Local Expert

Dermott is a sound engineer, freelance writer and photographer who has lived in Victoria, BC for over a dozen years. He spends most of his free time on two wheels; either his Kona Kahuna or Kawasaki Ninja 636. Making the most of what’s in his backyard, ‘Up Island’ is a favourite trip, as he goes where the road — and off-road — take him.
