A word or phrase that best describes my strengths as a cyclist is…
arrogant and cocky
I race my bike because…
I’ve always been good and it and the results make it very enjoyable.
If I could train anywhere, it would be…
In the hills of the Green Mountains. Great roads, great climbs and even great bars.
The pro racer I resemble most is…
Tom Boonen. Strong at the finish, strong at the long races and not so good in the hills.
The movie that spends the most time in my DVD player while I’m on the trainer is…
My DVD Player is usually empty. Live TV rocks for endurance sessions.
My philosophy on training/bike maintenance/diet is…
You get everything out that you put in. Garbage in and garbage out. Don’t like what you see, then you only have yourself to blame.
My favorite bike part is…
Good bar tape.
