I grew up in Massachusetts, just west of Boston, in a small historical colonial town named Sudbury. However, after high school I moved to Utah for university & never went back to the east coast. I pretty much claim that as “my home state” now.

I’ve been biking for any time in my life for which I have a memory. Can’t remember that far back as to what got me into biking. (But one of my earliest memories is repeatedly crashing in my driveway, as my dad helped me to learn to ride without training wheels.) What’s kept me cycling all my life is that it’s a total escape. The freedom of movement & speed. I don’t think about anything else.

 

Fun Fact: My cat’s breath smells like cat food.
