Retired: I officially retired from bicycle racing in August 2022 following ten consecutive years of commitment to the sport of endurance-distance and XC mountain bike racing. I will commit what remains of my bicycle-motivated experience to adventure touring. Click on the Travelogues tab for details of the most significant tours such as Connecting My Grandfathers | Bradford, Kansas to Waterville, Maine by bicycle and a complete list here.

USAC/UCI: As of Dec 2021, I was ranked as USA Cycling Cat 1, mountain bike, XC distance; and Cat 4, roadie. Moving forward, I don't plan to renew my pro licenses, USAC or UCI. In 2022 and beyond, other than rare exceptions, I'll race in the masters category whenever possible followed by (priority) cat 1, pro when a license isn't required, or as an amateur when those options are unavailable.

✝Annihilated my rear tire, and it turns out my new carbon hoop as well, at about mile 30 and this and other related issues resulted in a 20 minute stop. Rather than a possible top 10 finish I had to settle for 16th. Problem was likely a leaking (cheap) valve stem. Monarch Mind Bender, another flat! Something sharp. But the good news is no epic crashes on this technical course.

✝ A modest, six day adventure on a well understood route, even if many sections were new, to and from warm, familiar homes where good friends and family awaited each arrival With this experimental journey, I set out to confirm my suspicion that arriving to familiar spaces after a long bicycle journey would amplofy those experiences, for myself and my hosts. That turned out to be true. But what I didn't realize was this well intended 6-day loop through New England, the space where I was born and grew up, would inspire what may turn out to be a handful of decades exploring the Wolrd, and myself along the way, by bicycle.
