Career Highlights

2007

  • I survived 2007. Literally. No, I am serious. Ha Ha.
    2007 was special because I got to watch others excel. Samantha and Big Dan were fun to watch at Provincial Youth Champs and a big highlight was seeing Tara go from strong club rider to World Cup contender in the blink of an eye.

Previous

  • Have been on Podium at a few provincial track meets and at 2004 Nationals.
  • Beet Randy in the Pursuit at World Masters Games. Ha! Take that Mr. Endurance Man!

Career Lowlights

  • #1 Have been dropped on every gopher hill in Alberta.
  • #2 Lost a sprint to Randy once. I cried for a week.
