I have been mountain biking since 1993 and have been active in Mountain Bike Advocacy since 1997. I am a self-proclaimed MTB Junkie. I have been involved with MTB advocacy for over 14 years, 7 of those years on the Mid-Atlantic Off-Road Enthusiasts (MORE) Board in various positions, including President twice. I have helped to maintain and/or build and design portions of the trails at Fountainhead, Schaeffer, Rosaryville, Gambrill, Cabin John, Wakefield, Accotink, Colt's neck, Cedarville, Conway Robinson and Riverbend. All legal mountain bike venues within 100 miles of Washington DC. I am the current International Mountain Bike Association (IMBA) Representative for the DC Metro area. I also represents IMBA on the National Rivers and Trails Coalition Working Group. I am currently President of the Board of Directors for the local Trips for Kid’s Chapter. I was Race Director for their first 2 Charity Mountain Bike Races held the end of October I joined Potomac Velo Bike Racing Club in 1999 and have helped run their MTB and cross races for over 11 years performing various duties including course designer, assistant race director, announcer, course setup, registration, and awards. I have raced both MTB and Cyclocross since 1995 but have spent the past 7 years doing a few MTB races while I concentrate on the sport of Off-Road Triathlon, XTERRA . I am also a member of the Bike Lane Elite Racing team. I started racing XTERRA just a couple of years ago and was totally hooked from the beginning. I have competed in 31 XTERRA races including the 2005 and 2007 National Championships in Lake Tahoe finishing 5th in 2007 and ended up Mid-Atlantic Regional Champion in 2004 and 2009. I also competed in the 2007,2009 and 2010 XTERRA World Championships. I am also currently a staff member for EX2Adventures. They produce local off-road races that challenge competitors of varied interest and ability. From Trail running, mountain biking, adventure racing, off road triathlons they pretty much have an event for anyone. I have given MTB instruction clinics to the newbie’s before the 2004 VQ. I have competed in two VentureQuest races, the EX2 Off-Road Half Marathon, the Backyard Burn 10 mile Trail Runs, numerous Cranky Monkey MTB races, and the EX2 Off-Road Xterra Triathlon 5 times. I love mountain biking and all that it does for me. It is my passion and also my mid-life crisis.
