Where in the world am I from?

 

Well, originally I am from Montana . I was born in 1966 and raised in a town called Roundup. "The Roundup area is a beautiful oasis located in the Bull Mountains of Central Montana. According to historians, Roundup is so named because ranchers found the valley near the Musselshell River a natural place to "round up" their cattle in the fall of the year. When the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul & Pacific railroad reached Central Montana in 1907, it spurred homestead filings, development of Roundup's rich coal deposits, and spawned a period of economic boom for the area. From the 50's to the mid- 80's, the economy in Roundup slumped due to coal mine closings, drought and the closing of the rail line. However, due in part to the Great Montana Centennial Cattle Drive of 1989, which drew thousands of people from across the U.S., the town has experienced rejuvination. Today, Roundup folks are intensely proud of their town, and business is thriving." - http://www.midrivers.com/~pruround/roundup.htm


My racing days

I grew up wanting to be a professional hockey player. As it turned out I became a professional athlete, except not in a rink. In 1996 I applied for professional status and received one from NORBA. Yes, I race mountain bikes; well, I used to. Now that I am in school I have to devote my time to studies instead of dirt. To find out about the local racing scene, click on the picture to the right.

My top five best results

Here it goes with number one being my best:

    1. New England Championship Series Champion
    2. Two consecutive Vermont 50 wins
    3. New York State Pro Series runner up
    4. 24 hour solo @163 miles
    5. Over 100 other wins

What am I up to now?

I graduated from Clinton Community College in 1998 with an associates degree. I achieved this while racing for the K2 Corporation. Now that I am at Plattsburgh State University I have found that I can no longer race and train at the level I was. I retired from racing my first year at Plattsburgh State to pursue a degree in Computer Science. In fact, this page was a lab assignment.
