In My Own Words
I spend my off-season doing: a lot of school work
My goals and expectations for 2010 are: Win a road race, upgrade to Cat 2
I started racing because: I hurt myself running XC in high school and I had just watched Lance win the tour for the 7th time
My cycling mentors and/or influences are: Peter Coons, Loberg, Kyle Jacobsen, Andy Schleck
I consider my finest moment on the bike to be: Finally figuring out how to work as a team and leading my teammate out for a 2nd place finish.
The on thing I’ve done on a bike that I will never do again: Crash into a cactus (hopefully)
When I’m not on my bike, I like to: Snowboard, listen to music, hang out with friends
