New guy!
Hi all! Name's Dustin. Looonnggg story short. Weighed 325lbs. at 6'2, now I weigh 180 at 6'2 thanks to my bike and eating right! My bike saved my life! I'm a Cat 4 racer now, with aspirations to go 3 early next season. I live in Northeast GA. Any questions?

Hello Dustin, perhaps you could share that story sometime in the Clydesdales/Athenas forum--that's a great story for motivation .
Where do you do training/racing? Do you go outside Georgia for any races?

lol...no publisher or anything...i'm only 23....basically the book tells about how i got to be so big, how i got picked on for being big, how i lost weight, and where i am as far as my "career" currently..i will only try and release the book if i go pro....might seem stupid, but i dunno...we'll see...if i had enough interest, i could work on it a lot and maybe go ahead and finish it...
