Category: Pissy old sandbaggers. (masters 40+)
Machine: Gios Compact Pro with Campy Record. (good enough for DeVlaeminck. .)
Started, um, attending bike races: 1996.
Why I ride: Cuz pushing the bike for 120 miles sucks.
Favorite discipline: Long, brutal road races. And cyclocross. They compliment each other.
Strengths: Riding in horrible weather. Able to go 19 mph (and not one bit faster) for 200 straight miles.
Weakness: Spending too much time on non-cycling activities (i.e. running)
Best result: 2nd, masters cat, Piece of Cake RR 2001. (I won some brake pads!!!)
Worst result: Losing a 6 block, one-up race to a guy from the Portway Tavern (I lost my bike!!!).
Other notable achievement: Beating Greg Lemond in a cross country ski race.
Motto: “Double digit mileage is for wimps”
