About Me:

Professional cycling coach, bike fitter, exercise physiologist, and Physical Therapist at Upper Echelon Fitness. I have been involved in cycling for quite a while now, starting back in 1994. I mostly ride on the road but have done my fair share of 'cross, track, and mountain biking and love all disciplines.

Current Bike Collection:

It's always changing. Ridley road bike, Redline 'cross bike, and Kona Mt Bike. But I am about to switch them all out for a fleet of Veloforma machines.

Favorite Race:

Cyclocross? Star-Crossed. The old races at Jackson Middle School here in Portland were pretty amazing too.

Dream Bike:

I don't dream about bike, I dream abour riding.

Favorite thing about cyclocross:

When the weather is good and the course is good, it can be the most fun discipline in cycling. I also like that it brings together people from road, mountain, etc.

How long have you been racing cyclocross?

Since 1994
