CYCLING....is a important part of my life..since i was young i always enjoyed cycling After two trips cycling to see my sister in PRINCE GEORGE <a 7 day adventure 5 yrs ago> i felt that i had the dedication that i could meet the terrific challenge of ROAD RACING ...i have been ROAD RACING for 5 Years.     i ride for ATOMIC RACING CLUB VANCOUVER for the last three seasons After meeting JAMES NEIL<a cat#1 rider> James suggested ,observing my motivation, Sarah Neil<His Sister>Start to coach me. SARAH NEIL has a great deal of PRO level experience. Being a former BC CUP and NATIONAL Road Champion, racing pro in Europe for the Canadian National Team. It has been very rewarding working with such an experienced Road Racer and supportive person. Sarah Neil ended our Coaching Arrangement at the end of 2003....we had almost three great years working together. I want to thank Sarah for all Her time and effort...in the fall of 2004 i will be working with a new Coach...more later     Roger Sumner Roger Sumner is a cyclist I met in my first bike race in 2000 .After getting dropped by the main pack, Roger worked with me to catch back to other riders.It was hard to stay on His back wheel! But it showed me that racing is not only suffering to succeed .But also having fun ,looking on the horizon ,up the road,as Roger liked to do, catching the next rider .In other words,having fun . From the moment i met Roger i could tell this is someone that was going to be a great inspiration. Not long after meeting Roger he tragically passed away. It turned out that Sarah, my coach, was a very close friend.     Late in the 2003 season i got my first result in a sanctioned race. ..2nd place @ Lonsdale Provincial Crit Championship.     Tuesday nighter race 2002 Vancouver B.C.     Gastown 2002 promo picture from The Province     My good friend Randy has been a big support and inspiration to me in cycling
