Favorite things about racing/riding: Being in the woods and passing people on the second lap. Knowing my pace by feel and staying within myself, most of the time. Riding the course and doing the best I can on that day. Favorite biking moment: My favorite cannot be repeated. It was something that was said to me on a really long ride with a woman I coach. We laughed so hard. I can still remember it like it was yesterday Other than that, finishing Mount Mitchell in 06 and improving my time by 2 hours and 15 minutes in 07. Will be back in 08 if I can stay healthy. I love the longer rides and events. I plan on riding at least three distance races this year if I can find three on a Sunday. I have found two. Little help out there? Cool facts, quotes, hobbies: "You fail because you do not try." "If you do not do the training, it is not going to magically be there on race day."
