I have set 4 world records on June the 15th 2019 (100km, 100 Miles, 200Km and 6 hours) in the over 60 male category (solo bike). In 2020 I won the European championship (over 60, men) in the 12 hours race at Montello (Treviso - Italy); I understood Ultracycling could have been a challenge after a 12 hours race I won in 2018 in the Monza autodrome covering more than 417 km.

I'm an ultra-randonneur, adventure cyclist in Chicago, a member of Paniagua Racing and a brand ambassador for Infinit Nutrition. Racing competitively since 2018, I've accumulated a number of podium finishes at NCOM 1000, Natchez 444 and Virtual Race Across the West. However, my most memorable experience was the 2019 edition of Paris-Brest-Paris. I finished as the fastest American and joined the Charly Miller Society with a 52 hour, 44 minute time on no sleep traversing the French countryside.
