Welcome to my channel, The Bike Dork! Follow along as I go riding with friends on various trails, some comedy, and occasional insight on various topics. Topics include bike skills, bike setup, bike maintenance, life as a widower, etc. I lost my wife in 2016 after a long battle with late-stage breast cancer. It hasn't been easy since, but I'm moving on and want to share with you how I deal with my new life.
I've been riding a bike since I was a little kid. Back then, I could barely touch the pedals, and my marbles took a beating occasionally, but I loved the freedom a bicycle gave me! Over the years, I progressed from a cruiser bike, delivering newspapers to racing BMX and riding road bikes. My love of the bike never changed, just the bike. At a point in time, I spent 10+ years as a bike mechanic, becoming immersed in bikes and the community. These days I am focusing on trail building, enduro racing, and enjoying time on the bike.
