My name is Chris, and racing has
become my life. I’m a 2012 Mechanical Engineering graduate from California
State University, Chico. Instead of pursuing a mind-numbing office job, I stuck
with my passion for cycling and got a job with a bicycle manufacturer. Currently,
I’m supervising a gaggle of misfits who make the wheels for Santa Cruz
Bicycles.
While
working there is fun, racing is my true passion. My new endeavor is the self-inflicted
pain called cyclocross (B, cat 3/4). I dabble a little in cross-country
(sport), cruise the climbs and go all out downhill in the new craze of enduro
(expert). I also enjoy downhill and dual slalom (both cat 2) when I can find
time and/or races.

My friends and family around the country constantly ask what I've been up to, so I decided to start a blog about my racing experiences. In this blog I will talk about my riding and racing trips, special events related to riding, and a few local rides now and again. Being a former engineering student, writing and photography aren't exactly my strong points, so I might enlist the expertise of friends and family to help with posts. Stay tuned!
