Cycling Background

I started riding MTB in the early 90′s and began racing in the late 90′s. By 2005 life took over and MTB went on the back burner. In 2009 I decided it was time to get back into MTB. I packed up the car and headed to the Piney Hills Classic in Ruston, LA hoping to get some motivation. Lo and behold I meet up with several “Pigs” and after hanging out with them I had all the motivation I needed. Since then I’ve been riding with those guys just about every week.

Goal

I decided to make my return to MTB racing this year (2011). I plan to do the DORBA Fall Series as a CAT3 to see where I stand, since it’s been 10 years since I last raced. By the fall of 2012 (if not sooner) I plan to be racing CAT2.
