My husband introduced me to cycling when we got married 12 1/2 years ago. He has always been an avid cyclist - road, track and mountain bike, and rode competively in his youth. So naturally he hoped I would share his interest. If someone had told me 14 years ago that I would be having this much fun on a bike, I know I wouldn't have believed them. Now, it is a very rare occasion when we don't go out together and we both plan to start cycling to work together within the next few weeks.
I love riding with him because it forces me to constantly push myself to be a better rider - faster and more skillful. My goal is to one day kick his butt up one of our favorite climbs! Every season I can feel myself closing the gap a little bit more!
He is the best riding partner I could ever ask for.
