Although I have only been known as the One Eyed z since my bicycle VS car accident in 2006, I've been riding my entire life. I decided to turn my passion for the "Church of the Two Wheels" into my profession in 2000 and went to work for a local shop where I have been ever since. I have been cosumed by cycling and cycling related things ever since... I just can't seem to help myself....
I spent my teens, 20's and 30's doing unhealthy things to my body and emotions and I've been trying to break those habits ever since. I started running when I was 46 and ran my first marathon when I was 47. Having completed 30 marathons in 18 states, I finally admitted that I'd like to complete all 50 states. Whether running, cycling or swimming I'm a front of the back of the packer who would...
I work at Stanford Video and couldn't imagine working anywhere else. I try and ride my road bike home during the evening commute.
I ride my bike about 100 mile a week (give or take) as weather and light permit.
I am always looking for people who would love to share an evening bike commute from Stanford to the Campbell/San Jose area. I also do a 50 mile Saturday morning ride around Almaden...
I started Cycling in October 2008...I love to ride my road bike! I struggle with keeping off the belly fat. I am here to learn all I can about low carb lifestyle for endurance athletes. I know low carb works..I just need to learn to use it in my training. Current weight is 190... Racing weight is 155 - 160.
I lost a kidney and have just recently found a path to take because a Doctor took the time to listen and realized I was not a hypochondriac or a big overly sensitive, stressed, depressed woman. (yes, lots of justified sarcasm).
I was athletic, very lean and continued to stay fit by enjoying bike rides and playing recreational co-ed softball. However, when I started a family at 25, I had...
In 2008, I documented my journey to become a triathlete. A couch potato most of my life, I began cycling as a means to weight loss in 2006 and over that year, fell in love with biking, and lost 20 lbs. As my fitness level increased, I began to wonder if I could run, and in 2007, I had run my first 5K in 26:16! Last January, I returned to the pool after a 35 years hiatus, took some lessons, and...
I enjoy cycling and other outside activities such as sailing, tennis and volleyball. My overall goal is to discipline myself for optimal general health.

I am considering taking a personal training course to become a cycling-centric trainer of some sort. I would like to network...

An avid runner for years, I turned to the sports of Triathlon and Cycling to mix things up a bit.
