What is the biggest lie you've ever told: Erm...

Most memorable moment on my bike: It's hard to pick a most memorable... There are too many great memories! One of the ones I'm most proud of is doing a 300K brevet last summer--my first brevet--that went up to Artist Point on Mount Baker. It was a really hard climb in a hard ride, and I was really nervous I wouldn't be able to handle it, but I ended up having a great time!

Most fun ever had on a bike? Either a ride that showcases the beauty of the Pacific NW, or commuting past people stuck in cars on a beautiful day...
