Q&A - Personal
Why do you like this sport?
I like competing against myself while also against the field. I love the feeling of pushing yourself to the edge - the edge of your fitness, the edge of control on technical terrain, etc.
Do you train? What does your schedule look like?
I work full time, and train evenings and weekends. I try to get in about 100 miles a week on the road and mix in some mountain bike on the weekends.
Why do you compete?
It's just about the most fun I've ever had. The people in this sport are great. The competition is fierce, but friendly. It keeps me out of trouble, too.
What do you want to be when you grow up?
I never plan on growing up.
Some Personal Information About Me:
I've played guitar for 30 years and several other instruments for a while also. I performed the Verdi Requiem Mass with our city symphony. When I was a kid I had a painting of the freakiest, scariest, sad clown hanging over my bed, and I think it may have scarred me for life.

Q&A - Competition
How did you get started?
Quit smoking in Feb. 2008. In order to not put on a bunch of weight, and to stay motivated, I started to train for my first race. I loved it, and here I am, 30 pounds lighter and in the best shape of my life.
List your competitive highlights:
Cutting my time in the racemichaux.com series by over 45 minutes compared to my first race attempt in the series. Ending the season with a 5th place finish.
What are you planning for next season?
Standing on some podiums. Upgrade to Sport class (or Category 2 now, I guess) by the end of next season.
What has been your biggest accomplishment?
Quitting smoking and losing weight.

Hey Scott,
Congrats on the weight loss. I've lost 18 pounds since the beginning of the year. Slow but steady loss is my key to keeping it off. Hoping to loose another 18+.
My motivation is to get lighter so I can race faster for 2009!
Take care,
Lynn AKA the Bike Diva |
