Age: 38
Place of Birth: Valdosta, GA
Race Categories: Mtn Pro / Road Cat 3
Strengths: Long sustained Pisgah style climbing (and descending). Give me a 2500′ single track climb deep in the woods and I am in heaven. All-arounder on the road, but I seem to find myself in breakaways a lot. I guess I like the odds better in a final sprint.

Why are you racing for Velosports?
The chance to be around people who are truly dedicated to excellence in whatever they put their mind to.
Hobbies/Interests while not on the bike:
Beagling (dog shows, agility trials, field work, and lots of floppy ears and wet kisses). My wife, Cheryl and I own 4 AKC Beagles (one of which has won his Championship). Also, whenever I get back to the ocean, I fall back into my pre-bike sports of surfing and windsurfing.
Your favorite team sponsor:
