Hola Amigos! I'm Chris in Carlsbad, about a mile up the hill from PCH.
I ride a Felt and my old Masi Gran Criterium, (though the Masi is currently having a spa-day at Cyclart.) I'm returning to cycling after a pseudo-hiatus.
I lived and raced in Holland for 3 years (though no spectacular results--those Dutch, Belgians and Flemish emerge wheels-first when they're born.)
I'm also an avid motorcyclist and
have ridden to Philadelphia and back.
I'm also a kayaker and have
paddled to Catalina and back a few times.
The company I work for here in C'bad actually makes the aforementioned bunnysuits.
I have no interest in riding in large pelotons, taking up an entire lane, or playing Mad Max with motorists. (
We redskin cyclists are few and the paleface motorists are many. I counsel peace.)
I've been divorced for just over 3 years, so my Brooks saddle has been my most intimate companion since then.
Slowly getting back into dating, however. 8D
And finally, I'd like to find a safe, comfortable way to bring my foo-foo dog along, since she really seems to enjoy motorcycling with me too.

I look forward to learning from you fine people and perhaps riding with you some day. (Though I prefer breakaway-sized groups of 3-5 over parade-pelotons.
Paz y amor, hermanos- y hermanas-cosmicos.
(Peace & Love, cosmic brothers & sisters.)
