How did you get into bike racing?
I found a race in Spokes Magazine and thought it would be fun to go try it out, so my friend and I raced together through the race and ended up not finishing. But I came back next year to win the series.
What is your favorite ride?
Anything off pavement, with rocks. I like rocks.
What are your goals for the 2012 season and beyond?
Have fun. If your not having fun on your bike then it’s not worth riding. For 2012 I wanna spend more time on my bike and enjoy riding. For beyond, probably ride across the US or something like Ride the Divide.
