About Me

I own a bicycle shop in San Luis Obispo. I like to ride my bike and spend time out doors. I hate my office. Well hate is a strong word. Ok, I dislike my office. I like bbqs and the pleasure of good company and good beer. I like to photograph things. Click. To capture a moment to share with someone else is pretty cool.

My Interests

Road Bikes, Mtn bikes, bike bikes (hobby turned business), cars, photography, cooking, good stuff.

I'd like to meet:

Alberto Contador. Amazing for his first Tour De France. What a rider. Actually, come to think of it, the whole Disco Tour Squad.

Music:

Whatever happens to be on the XM?

Movies:

The Incredibles, Monsters Inc, Over the Hedge, Hoodwinked, Ice Age, Ice Age 2, Shrek, Shrek 2, The Wild.... anyone see a theme here? I also like... The Usual Suspects, Space Balls, Robin Hood Men in Tights, Blazing Saddles.

Television:

Yes I have one. I watch the Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad, House, Law and Order. Thats about it. Come to think of it,I could probably survive with just the fox network and be just fine. Mostly the TV is used for movies.

Books:

Not much of a book worm. More of a magazine type. But I read bike stuff and road and track. Last book I read was "its not about the bike"

Heroes:

My parents. Simply for putting up with me as a kid. To everyone who came from nothing and made something of themselves. I came from everything, and as hard as it is, I have nothing but respect for those who have pulled themselves up from their boot straps.

Chemically enhanced goo
