​ABOUT

This is my adventure, last year I borrowed my grandparents Kia Sorento to drive around to all the US racing and this year I bought it...
​So now I'm driving ~my~ Kia around the US and following the pro mountain bike racing circuit wherever it takes me. Take a look around the website for stories, photos, my race calendar, and keep scrolling down to see the brands helping me out along the way. Whether you're family, friends, competitors, or followers, thanks for checking me out. Currently at home in Heber City, Utah trying to get the ball rolling for the 2020 season!  

If you've got any questions, comments, or would like to become a part of the journey, head over to the contact page and get in touch!

​Cheers,
​Ryan
