Why I started biking: My best friend convinced me to by my first mountain bike when I was a freshman at UF. I loved the exercise and the social setting of biking. Three years later I got tired of trying to keep up with my roommate on my mountain bike on our road rides before class and bought my first road bike.
Favorite bike ride: For both road and mountain, I love the North GA/North Carolina mountains. Road: any of the roads along the 6-gap ride. Mountain: Bull and Jake mountains. At least, those are my favorite easily-accessible-in-a-weekend rides.
Greatest accomplishment: being a dad.
Strangest bike setup ever seen: Beautiful $4000 ti mountain bike with baby carrier. Wait a minute, was that mine??
Dream Bike: any bike in the mountains of Asturias in northern Spain.
Highest recorded 'on-bike' speed/ location: 57 mph in the mountains of Utah
