Yeesh, this guy is annoying. I haven't even picked up the quest yet and I've already killed him once and aggroed him twice just by him running by me while I'm questing. I'm sure once I get the quest, I won't be able to find him.
His knockback/charge abilities are annoying, too. But the toy he drops for mount speed is fun and nice for questing.

If you're wondering what's the fastest way to find him, bite off more than you can chew with mobs in the area and he will come up from behind you.
(source) - personal experience
Don't worry about finding him. As you quest in the area, he will find you. Multiple times. His aggression zone is quite wide. I actually fought him 11 times...Most annoying...felt like 100 times.
