I have been involved in cycling since I was about 13 years old. I rode centuries and club rides off and on through high school and worked at several pro shops. I drifted away from cycling for several years and immersed myself in the world of race cars working on SCCA formula and sports racers. It was here that I learned many of my fabrication skills. I was still riding my bike to and from work and decided to enter a few club races.
I won my first race and took out a USCF license for the 1981 season. I turned pro in 1986 for the Schwinn Icy-Hot team and raced with the Coors Light team from 1989-1995. I raced to multiple State and National Championships on the road, track and even cyclocross. I represented the United States at the World championships in the 5OOO meter professional pursuit, finishing sixth in 1986 and fourth in 1989. I also briefly raced mountain bikes as a professional, pulling off a few top twenty finishes in world class competition shortly before I retired. My diverse cycling experience also includes setting the current world speed record in a human powered vehicle at 68.73 mph.
Since I am well versed in all forms of cycling I have a unique advantage when it comes to designing and building the ultimate custom frame for your body and your riding goal. My experience as a rider and my knowledge of materials and frame design will help you arrive at the finish line first or give you an unfair advantage leading your buddies down a screaming descent!
