I got my first road bike shortly before I joined the team in the early fall of 2008 at the age of 13. My first ride with the team was up Mt Diablo and after that I was hooked. I started racing and loved it. At the Gold Nugget Junior Stage Race I grabbed my first win. 2010 was my first year with a training plan which greatly excelled my fitness. My season was a bit crash-marred but I am still satisfied with my results. Next year, 2011, will be my third season with the team and I hope to get a Cat 3 upgrade so I can go to the National Championships. I also hope to help my teammates get some wins. We had some great teamwork and tactics this year and I hope we can build on that for next year. I have really enjoyed my two years here and I look forward to next year.
