The best part about being an Achieve athlete is:

Coach Dana is very flexible in helping me balance my training and race calendar around a very busy work schedule and a few non-cycling commitments. I’m able to know where I need to make sacrifices, either personal/social or in setting expectations for certain races. I have a very long calendar, so we’re able to look to the important races and focus on getting ready.

The aspect I like most about cycling and/or racing is:

I love cycling because it takes me to beautiful places with friends, and makes me push my limits.

I love racing because it’s exciting, tactical and contributes to the above reasons why I like cycling in general.

My favourite bike is:

My Giant Propel. So. Freakin. Stiff.

The cycling/sporting accomplishment I’m most proud of is:

Cycling: 1st Copperopolis Road Race, 2nd Wards Ferry Road Race

Sporting in general: Climbing the NW face of half dome.

If I could be one animal I would be a:

A honey badger. I’ll go off the front, I don’t care.

Of the following three facts, two are true and one is false:
