He is a member of Old School Industries Bicycle Racing Team and the Rocky Mountain Cycling Club. In 2018, he enjoyed cycling over the Continental Divide, more than once! He hasn’t planned his 2020 adventures yet, but in 2019 he did some gravel riding and racing, including the RMCC Pawnee Butte Grasslands and the Tour de Steamboat. He also conquered the Pike’s Peak Ascent for the 3rd time, and ran the scenic but difficult Lead King Loop where he was able to see up close the photogenic Crystal Mill.

He is an avid Ohio State Buckeyes football fan, and has been known to schedule his autumn Saturdays around the Buckeye’s television football schedule. In addition to running and cycling, his other interests include spending time with his family (of course!), drinking craft beer, and gardening.
