Also I like to ride with friends and other people.<br /><br /><strong>What is your strongest talent?</strong><br />Technical riding, and hills.<br /><br /><strong>What is your favorite win/achievement?</strong><br />7th Place finish at 2008 US Cycling National Championships in a 30 rider class. I was boxed out at the start and pushed into the barriers and crashed, and then was dead last - but I managed to to come back and finish 7th.<br /><br /><strong>What is your goal in this sport?</strong><br />Right now I'm looking at going for a MTB National Championship.<br /><br /><strong>Most essential pre-race gear?</strong><br />Probably food, because I never eat enough before races.<br /><br /><strong>Other activities:</strong><br />MilSim airsoft games, riding my dirt bike, and racing sailboats<br /><br /><strong>Worst job ever?</strong><br />Not sure.
