New Season/2014-1015

Gearing up for the upcoming riding/racing season! The Cervelo S-5 is new. My first ride with the Shimano DI2 system! The Specialized Tarmac is my "old" bike (2005) that I have used in all three RAAM races and a few Furnace Creek 508's. My S-Works was destroyed during my accident in Tuba City during RAAM 2011. 

On March 8th I will be heading to Tucson to ride in the Pactour for a week! It is called the Ciricahua Challenge Tour and should be fun as well as good start to my "serious" training for the Race Across the West in June.
I'll be riding with my friend Don Williams (past 508 teammate) and we will be riding as Team Cyclonauts. We are both members of the Valley Spokesman Racing Team sponsored by Livermore Cycling Shop Also our friend Tim Burgh will be the team leader and crew chief. Also my past teammate from 2006 Race Across America Skip Morgan will be grew. I am hoping to find one more crew.

I am still "nursing" several injuries from my accident but I should be able to persevere. I have lots of time before the race. Here's the link to the Race Across the West which starts in Oceanside CA. & ends in Durango Co.


CU on the road!
