I have been interested in bikes and cycling for longer than I can remember.  I started 
riding seriously at the age of 15.  Over the years, I have participated in some USCF 
racing, but never got hooked on it like many riders do.  I think this had something to 
do with the short nature of the races.  The race would be over and I would just be 
getting warmed-up and starting to ride well.  


All of that changed in 1998.  I moved back to my home town of Columbus, Indiana, 
and began training for and competing in what are known as ultra-marathon cycling 
events.  Generally, an ultra-marathon event would be any ride of at least 12 hours 
or at least 200 miles.  I found that I not only have a natural aptitude for this type of 
riding, but that I most enjoy training for and participating in the long events.  There 
is a real sense of accomplishment in just finishing a 200 mile-long ride.  

As you'll see from the upcoming events section, I have a busy schedule planned for 
the year 2000.  For the first time, I will be participating in a 24-hour event in addition 
to a couple of record attempts as well.  Links to these events will be posted as soon 
as they are available.
