About Me

I spend my off-season doing: Hockey, snowboarding, rock climbing, the gym.
My goals and expectations for 2012 are: Help the team on the road. Top 15 WORS Overall. Top 25 Chequamegon.
I started racing because: My college roommate was an elite racer from New Hampshire.
My cycling mentors and/or influences are: My teammates, B-dog, Eckelstein, Steve Pete, Todd Wells, Team Hoyt.
I consider my finest moment on the bike to be: High-fiving my dad at the end of a great WORS race.
The one thing I’ve done on a bike that I will never do again: Hesitate.
When I’m not on my bike, I like to: Travel, cook, try new microbreweries, mingle.
Something you probably don’t know about me is: I’m somewhat of an eBay ninja.
