I’m an eclectic medley of red state stereotypes simmered in blue state memes. I grew up in the backwoods of rural southwest Louisiana and landed in NW Washington after a stint in Denver, Colorado.

Bellingham is a great place for an outdoors enthusiast like myself. Some of my favorite activities include: cycling, hiking, rowing, and camping. I have a 16-foot open water rowing shell that I use for multi-day boating trips to the San Juan Islands. Galbraith mountain and all its single track are at my doorstep. North Cascades National Park and the Mount Baker Wilderness comprise half of Whatcom County.

I’ve got an adequate stable of bikes consisting of 2 handcrafted steel framed road bikes and a single-speed Cannondale F600 mountain bike. Perhaps I’ll ride a full suspension mountain bike someday…but only if it’s a single-speed!
