About Me

Shawn
When I was a kid, a bicycle represented freedom, adventure, fun. Like many, when I turned 16 I switched to driving everywhere. For the next ten years I didn't even own a bike, let alone ride one. At 26, I bought a $100 bike and mustered up some courage to ride to work. In time, I rediscovered my joy for cycling.
