I just got the email today and have been upgraded to a cat 2. Here I am a 42 years old husband and father. I have grown up being the fat kid, wore out half my back bounced off stuff from Chicago to South Carolina and broke more bones and bikes that I can count. With all that behind me and a will that won't give up doing what I always dreamed of, I am succeeding. I can not thank enough my beautiful wife and wonderful son for their support. One of my best friends Dave Hall and his family. He has helped me in so many ways and coached me to win. The wonderful people at Cane Creek. If they had not given me the comp entry to the FBCC in 2004 I probably would still be doing cookie rides. All the sponsors and people I have met along the way.
My plan for 2011 is to go to Nationals in Bend Oregon but first and most important is I am dedicating myself to Dave to get points to be a cat 1 so he can go to Elite Nationals and win it !!!
