History:

Long distance races and time trials. Put over 21,000 miles last year and about 112,000iles the four years before that. The previous four years riding were nine months , then take the winter off. Now I ride fewer miles but year round, is quite a bit easier even though you have to learn how to stay warm in all weather conditions. Isn't anything better than good friends, dry weather and a fun ride with hot coffee thrown in somewhere. On the flip flop is the zen of riding alone, it is a constant amazement to me how far things seem when you take a car.

Over 21,000 miles in 2005, over 28,000 miles per year the eight years before that. Am starting to cut back on the miles but still like to ride enough to feel strong....

Still hold records for

Canonball Race
S2S Race
Oregon State Time Trial
Bakersfield TT
Vancouver TT
RAO (Four Person Team)
