Cycling Stats
Dec 31st, 2006 (Sun)
Cycling in my new home state of Colorado in 2006: Canny by Fort Collins' iconic Horsetooth Reservoir.
It’s been 13 years since my very first century, and yet my passion for cycling has only grown ever since. Be it racing against cars by Lodi Lake during my teenage years, struggling up Salsberry Pass in Death Valley with my faithful Cannondale or recumbent, or riding in darkness towards a distant inferno southeast of Yosemite on the 4th of July, the memories are large and plentiful.
Below are some cycling career highlights. 2006 was something of a lax biking year for me due to focusing more on running marathons. However, 2007 should be the year of the bike again, including a return to organized long-distance rides.
- 2003 Paris-Brest-Paris ancien (84 hours, 29 minutes)
- 2003 Davis Brevet Series
- 1999 One Thousand Mile Club (5 double centuries in a year)
- 1999 California Triple Crown Stage Race (the youngest rider to complete the series up to that point, age 23)
- Completed the California Triple Crown challenge in 2004, 2002, 2000, 1999, 1998, and 1997.
- Part of the winning team in the 1998 Bay Area Low Key Hill Climb Series
- Finisher of ~30 double centuries and a few Ironman triathlons.

Felix, it’s always a pleasure to read your site. I wish you the very best in Colorado - we’ll miss you big time here in the Bay Area.
I’m going to ride PBP in ‘07. Can you recommend a place to stay, and can you comment on how best to pack/transport my carbon Orbea Orca to France?
Thank you for any input you can offer.
