About US
Over 3 years ago THE FAST FORWARD started as a way to share my personal journey to health and fitness via cycling.
A former collegiate scholarship athlete, I found myself overweight and unhealthy entering my mid thirties. After a few years of disciplined training and lifestyle changes I decided it was time to share my outlook and inspirations with the world. My goal was to inspire others to explore new techniques, adaptations, places and food.
That passion quickly evolved into the formation of a cyclocross team. That team enjoyed great success for a few seasons and included a range of riders from beginners to professionals. Team riders celebrated and supported each other through the ups and downs of cyclocross racing. Those included dramatic crashes, equipment failures, personal challenges as well as many race victories, series winners, district champions and countless category license upgrades.
Our family of riders traveled across California then across the US and eventually to Europe together for riding and racing in events. In 2018 the team built the Coyote Valley Cyclocross event in Northern California partnering with the Charm City Cross to share the love we enjoyed racing together. In 2019 the team went quiet due to a litany of reason including rider injuries, life and career changes and moves out of California.
Now that we’ve seen unprecedented changes in the world due to COVID 19 it’s time to bring back THE FAST FORWARD but not as a race team or event promoter. THE FAST FORWARD has evolved again into a way to share positive and helpful information relative to health, lifestyle, gear, travel and community with a nod to the people and influences that built our family and events in the past.
Enjoy,
