"
I started riding pretty late, didn’t care for it too much as a kid, was on training wheels way too long. When I started using a bike as my main way to get around Toronto I fell in love. Being in flat downtown Toronto, road riding is what got me hooked, but eventually got drawn further and further off pavement, which is part of what led me to relocate to Vancouver. Gravel, bikepacking, and mountain biking are my main scenes now, with my eye on gravel and CX racing for ’22.
Bikes:
Do-it-all: ’87 Nishiki Olympic turned flat bar gravel bike
Gravel: Niner RLT Steel, mechanical Force XPLR
