Gentry, Arkansas

I started cycling for fitness and now I'm addicted. I've been at it since September 2007. I have goals of reaching a good weight for my height and do a century ride under 6 hours.

Profile

Born in Reading, PA, lived in Portland, OR, Loma Linda, CA, Corsicana, TX and now Gentry, AR. I'm a physical therapist and have been since 1992.

Details

Hobbies: Cycling, SCUBA, Backpacking/hiking
Gender: M
Strengths: I descend well (most likely due to my weight)

Trophy Case
