First “real” bike was a 26″ Specialize Rock Hopper

Family stuff, techy computer nerdy stuff, and home brewing

Any good IPA will do…

I’m all over the board on this one. I can pretty much listen to anything that is NOT mainstream radio.

Thai or Indian by a long shot.
Most embarrassing moment on a bike?
Oh boy…that header I took over the barriers at the 2013 King’s race where Kent was so perfectly placed for the photo op.
Interesting factoid?
Grew up in a small town in West Virginia named ‘Short Gap’. There were two mountains, a short gap between them…thus the town name.
Last thoughts before this is over?
Is this over yet?
