Location:

Lake Forest, Ca.

My first bike was: some sweet red and white BMX bike when I was a little kid, I can't recall what brand. It gave me many fat lips, scrapes, and lumps to the head.

Best Race Result: 2nd Place. Bonelli Park CX.

Current Sponsors: Twin Six and BofA (aka my bank account).

My current bike(s): Redline Conquest Team, Specialized Stumpjumper, and a beach cruiser.

When I'm not riding I'm: lurking the intrerwebz. I see youuuuu.

This year, I want to: keep having fun growing as cyclist, race more, crush dreams, and load up on trail time with my crew this Spring and Summer.

If you're ever in my area, check out: the sweet local trails in the Santa Ana's, and really anywhere in Orange County is great. Then go have a beer or three at Cook's Corner, a total dive biker bar.

The cycling world needs more: beer and less dope!

Preferred type of racing: Cyclocross!

If I could ride anywhere: it would probably just be local, and involve a solid group of friends.

You should do this everyday: find the good in the bad, laugh out loud to yourself, oh...and ride your bike.

Did you know: i often wear pink American Apparel briefs to bed?

Tip #1

Don't forget your bike is on top of the car before you pull into the garage. Yup, happens to the best of us.
