Law student Bar applicant Law school graduate by day, blogger by night, cyclist in all the spaces in between.

I live in Boston, was born in Australia, grew up in New Jersey and Tokyo, Japan, went to college in Pennsylvania, and ride a Bianchi and a Dolan but still have yet to make my way to Europe.

Nor do I have gears on my bikes. A situation I’m currently attempting to remedy.

In the meantime, I’m redefining “slow” while blogging about all things bike. I make the occasional cycling cap for Cambridge Bicycle and NYC Velo, need coffee to function in the morning, and cannot imagine life without Americanos, ketchup, red bean paste, Underarmour or NYC Velo.

I also currently make up one half of cassette.

I hope you like what you see. Feel free to get in touch or just say hello!
