host-chrisHi, I’m Chris Coburn. A little about me. I’m from Mississauga, but so far the counselling is helping me get over that.

I have a beautiful wife Lennea and two beautiful daughters, Kendra and Nayla. Also Frisco, our Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever.  I love the Fraser Valley, have ridden every road here on my bike with the Cops For Cancer Tour De Valley team which I have been a media rider with for five years now. And I am beyond stoked to be one half of Valley Mornings With Chris & Jess!
