ABOUT US
As the youngest of three boys growing up in upstate New York, I was always trying to keep up with my brothers which led me to riding a two wheeler, without training wheels, at two. Unfortunately, I didn’t know how to stop and rode down the hill hitting a mailbox. No worries, major injuries were averted and my love of biking began.
A half mile from our house was a mountain biking park where I rode my Specialized stump jumper often. Later, I started road biking with my father, who had been biking for years, averaging twenty miles a day but not afraid to complete a 60-100 mile ride on occasion. He and I still ride most days, but now we do it on California.
It was this love of biking that led me to my first job in a bike shop while finishing college and now, opening my own shop with my father. It’s a dream come true and I’m fortunate to share this passion for biking with my father and the community. Having biked all over the country, I can truly say there is no better place for biking than Santa Barbara County and I’m looking forward to introducing you to the area.
Ride Safely and Often, or….. Happy Riding
