Age: 36
Race discipline and Category: XC, SUPER-D, DOWNHILL, 100 MILE EPICS. Beg/sport
Years racing: 3
Bike of choice: NORCO
Mountain bike and race history: I really enjoy anything fast and dangerous. Which is why I got into skiing and Mountain Biking (MTB)early in life. I competed in my first XC/DH race when I was about 17 at White Pass Wa. I got 2nd in the DH and 3rd in the XC. I took about 15 years off from life in general and presued my dreams of being a hopeless dopefeind. I made my comeback in 2000 and was ready to race in 2008 with alot of support and encouragment from my close friends and the FOCF (friendsofcapitolforest.org).I have not seen the podium since but still dig racing and suffering with the best of them. Always putting myself up against riders I know are better than me.
Race Goals: My goals when racing are to see new places, network with fellow riders and trail builders, get faster and have FUN. This year I will be riding both ends of the MTB spectrum. On my Single Speed I will be cranking it out at any local XC race and then putting down some Epic 100 milers and hopefully finishing. In between I want to put in some sketchy fast Super-D and Downhill runs. I will not be the fastest rider in any discipline but would consider myself a solid rider on any trail. So if you want to rip it in Capitol Forest come on down and get it!
Ride on, POKEY
