Outside of my family there is nothing I’d rather be doing than riding my bike (a Surly LHT). Mostly road, some mountain, but recently love gravel riding as the best of both worlds. Too big (6’3") to be a good climber but love climbing, admittedly more of a freight train than a race car. I just keep on keepin’ on.

Have traveled by bike across the US (Atlantic to Pacific) 3 times. One solo and two as a route leader for Bike the US for MS.
Some video clips I put together of my solo cross country ride:
Pt 1: https://youtu.be/033ipZMfAas
Pt 2: https://youtu.be/o_uTDFweeiw

Currently in my fifties and working to get back into the shape I was on those trips!

New to the world of SYSTM and Sufferlandia, I love it so far!
