Bio: Dan started racing mountain bikes in eighth grade with his friends and slowly progressed through the categories. In an attempt to gain fitness, he got a road bike when he was a junior in highschool. He got hooked up with the local road club and was shown the ropes by a friendly group of old guys. Racing on the road started the year after, and hasn't stopped since. Dan still balances road racing and mountain bike racing, with a full calender of events running from March until October.
