I cannot remember a time I have not had a bike. I have been riding and journaling since 1997. I began riding mountain bikes/MTB events in August 2004.

Lots of photos and stories can be found at:

Description:  Beautiful frosted purple. In this photo, my bike is leaning up against a tree growing in the back yard of the house I grew up in. I recently took a ride back through the tiny town where I grew up. I had not lived in this house or set foot on the property in over 20 years. I love this photo of my bike against that familiar old tree.
