ABOUT ME

I’ve spent over 30 years racing bikes, including completing the grueling 4,300-mile Transamerica Bike Race and competing in too many triathlons, including full Ironman events. From competitive racing to long, challenging rides, cycling has always been my passion. It’s not just about the miles, it’s about the experience—the sense of freedom, the thrill of pushing my limits, and the joy of being on the bike. As a lifelong rider, I know that each ride brings something new, whether it’s discovering a new route or hitting a personal milestone.

In addition to my racing experience, I’ve spent years as an expert bike mechanic, running my own bike shop. I’ve built, tuned, and repaired bikes of all kinds, ensuring they perform at their best. Whether it’s a simple tune-up or a full custom build, I understand the importance of getting every detail right to ensure a smooth, safe, and enjoyable ride.

As a bike ambassador, I’m committed to sharing that passion with others. I truly believe cycling can be life-changing. It’s about more than just fitness—it’s about freedom, discovery, and the endless possibilities the open road offers.

If you're new to cycling, training for a big event, or just want to experience Southern California’s incredible roads, I'm here to guide you and share my love for bikes and riding. Let’s ride!
