Skiing at the World Criterium Races

A Little Personal Info

My photo
Hi, I'm Brad! I love the great outdoors and enjoy skiing. This blog is inspired by some of my many life experiences and world travels. I have a Ph.D. from the University of California, Davis and work to find solutions to some of the world's challenging energy and environmental problems. I went back into competitive snow ski racing and won the USSA National Speed Series (Downhill and Super G) title for my class (M5). It was an amazing and fun year of skiing. I also enjoy being around all kinds of animals from horses to dogs and love to spend time at Tahoe, my little farm near Cool or traveling somewhere new around the world. I have been to Nepal and seen Mount Everest, to Alaska's Denali, the Matterhorn in Switzerland and even Maroon Bells near Aspen, CO. Thanks for stopping by and checking out my website.

Road Bike Training with US Ski Team

Here is a recent article on some road bike training I did with the US Ski Team along the California Coast in June 2011.  I joined the team for a portion of the bike trip and it was a lot of fun.  The team made a video too and it is on youtube and the link is below.

Special thanks to Steven Nyman, US Ski Team!  Here is a picture of the World Cup bib they gave me after a good day of road bike riding.  It reads "Nice Riding Bradley" and is signed by Steven Nyman.  I have also shown a picture of Steven Nyman wearing the bib on the Napa road bike trip.  He is in the picture with Erik Fisher.
