 Single speed randonneuring around the Hood Canal 300km |
My passion is randonneuring with Seattle International Randonneurs (SIR). By far the most friendly, ego-less group of cyclists I have ever met. Needless to say, long-distance unsupported riding is a constantly evolving practice and I learn a great deal with every brevet, and I enjoy it. Ride Reports here >>

I want to ride the Great Divide, the Silk Road and more epic tours in the mountains of the world. I do want to ride around the world someday...anyone ridden from Paris to Vladivostok? Silk Road, Tibet (that ain't China!), Australia, NZ, Vietnam? Hopefully my family will join me on some journeys.
