With 46 years of riding experience, I've spent nearly half a century exploring what motorcycling has to offer. From dirt bikes and sport motorcycles to long-distance touring machines, I've ridden across the country, commuted through congested city traffic, raced competitively on America's race tracks and tackled off-road trails throughout the Midwest and Southeast. Each type of riding has taught me something new, and every mile has strengthened my understanding of what it takes to ride confidently and safely.

My journey includes competing in motorcycle road racing, where skill, precision, and confidence are everything. I've successfully completed training and graduated from some of the most respected riding programs in the country: California Superbike School, Suzuki Advanced Riding School, WERA Road Racing Rider's School, CCS Road Racing Rider's School, and the MSF Advanced Rider Course (ARC). Each program expanded my understanding of advanced riding techniques, bike control, and the importance of continuous rider education and the development of riding skills.

Most recently, I've served as a Demonstration Rider for the Motorcycle Training Institute's MSF-certified Basic Rider Course (BRC) for new riders. It's rewarding to help beginners discover the joy of motorcycling while ensuring they build a solid foundation of safe riding habits. As a daily rider, I want to share what I've learned over forty-plus years of motorcycling with the next generation of riders and help them start their journey with confidence and competence. Safety, customer service, and satisfaction, along with preparing students for the MSF Basic Rider Course, are my highest priorities.
