2024 RACING AGE: 60
RESIDENCE: Portland, ME
WHERE I GO MONDAY MORNING: 7th and 8th grade Social Studies teacher at Sanford Junior High School
RACING DISCIPLINE(S) AND CATEGORY(S): Expert Mountain Bike (cat 1 USA Cycling MTB) and Masters Cyclocross Cat 3. I also an starting to enjoy gravel grinders.
# OF YEARS RACING: 28
# OF BIKES OWNED: Kona Libre, Kona Hei Hei, Kona Minuit, and a Kona Wo.
FAVORITE BIKE: My Kona Hei Hei is just a great bike for racing and bombing around. I love this bike. My Libre is also a great ride and I’m spending many quality hours on it.
FAVORITE TRAIL OR RIDE: My regular ride from home is the Presumpscot River trails and other areas in Portland. I really like riding the trail networks in Gorham. They have done an exceptional job getting access to lands and building flowy trails. Bradbury State Park has some good riding, and Falmouth is really expanding and has incredible variety.
NON-CYCLING INTERESTS/HOBBIES: I love guitars and all things guitars. I've been building electric kits and find it a nice way to be creative. If you are in the Portland area and Jeezum Crow are playing, come check us out. We're mostly old people who like to play what many call 'Americana'. Sort of a rock, country, blues, folksy mix of stuff.
