Who are you and what makes you tick?
I am an avid cyclist, adventure traveler and thrill seeker.
I am inspired by the journey and discovery that comes with travel to distant, exotic, little-trodden places. Adventures are best when they push physical and emotional limits – some of mine include jungle-trekking in Malaysia, ziplining in Costa Rica, snowshoeing in Yosemite and hiking the Adirondacks among others.
Your motto: Pain is weakness leaving the body.
What parts of active life do you participate in? Cycling, hiking, camping.
What is your favourite ride near the city? Leslie Spit is a great reprieve from the bustle of many of the city trails. It’s close to where I live, and I can go full-out without worrying about running anyone down!
Your favourite place: I have experienced too many great places to choose just one….so I’ll answer by saying that my favourite place to cycle so far would be the Cabot Trail. It’s very scenic and a good challenge!
Your favourite time (season, day, week, event): Autumn. Fall colour is unbeatable and the cool crisp air makes for great cycling and hiking without the smog
Your favourite website/magazine: VeloNews
Your active role models/heroes: Lance Armstrong of course!
Your guilty pleasure: Cupcakes – any and all flavours
Your cause: Multiple Sclerosis
Your next active goal or commitment: The MS Bike Tour. On August 15/16, I will join in the fight against multiple sclerosis and cycle 200km riding from Brampton to Waterloo return.
