Favorite thing about Specialized:
I have enjoyed feeling and witnessing first hand the quality of the bikes improve each year. I thought the bikes were amazing in 2010 (when I rode my first Specialized), and now I am blown away with the ride and overall feel of the 2012 Venge.
Top 3 Race Results:
- 1st Panoche Valley Road Race

When did you start shaving your legs? Shaving cream or soap?
I started shaving my legs my first year riding because I wanted to see my veins. Soap all the way!
What kind of race is your specialty?
I am a great overall rider. Crits, road races, uphill, windy – I do it all. And I love time trails.
Do you race mountain bikes or cyclocross?
NOOOOOO, I don’t want to get dirty! My white shoes are supposed to stay white.
Do you listen to the same kind of music when warming-up for a TT vs a crit vs a road race? What kind is it?
Trance, Euro-dance, House or rap
Would you choose a romantic dinner with your girlfriend or Go-Kart racing?
I would have to go with good eats with the lady.
Sports car or motorcycle? What kind?
Tough question! Ducati Superbike 1199 Panigale S Tricolore or an Aston Martin DB9.
What is your most memorable personal or team result?
When I helped teammate Lawson Craddock at the 2010 Regio Tour in Germany. That week I was a climbing beast and helped him win the KOM Jeresy.
What are your short-term and long-term cycling goals?
Short-term: win Nationals TT
