An interesting day...
Up Bradley. Up Tweed. Over to Toga Hill. Around Rockland Lake. Thought about heading to Titanic, but the heart wanted something else.
So here I am. @coffeeridecafe A bacon, egg and cheese telling me I made the right call.
Some days you chase the climb. Some days you chase the sandwich. 😂
Today, I got both.🎉🎉🎉

The moment before the ride. Anticipation. Excitement. Nerves. Friends. Hellos. Confidence. Ready.
Now? Legs heavy. Heart full.
Today we rode A Day in Hell. Not to prove anything to anyone else. Just to feel what those roads ask of you. The potholes, the gravel, the mud, the quiet madness that makes this sport what it is.
For some, this was familiar ground. For others, it was a first step into something that once felt out of reach.
Every single person who showed up today. You did something hard. You kept going when the road said stop. That’s everything.
Deep gratitude to @rapha_newyork for putting on this event. For creating a space where riders at every level can test themselves, suffer together, and come out the other side smiling. This is what community looks like.
Hell of a day. Hell of a group. Hell of a route @reneherrerajr put together. 😈
I #choosecycling because it provides me inner quiet, peace and serenity. In the moment, I am focused on my breathing, my cadence, my heart rate, on the road ahead, on the things around me and in that moment there’s no room for problems, insecurities, doubt, or anything negative. I #choosecycling because it’s good for my mind, my body and my spirit. It doesn’t matter if I’m going fast or slow, uphill or downhill, alone or with others. Everything looks better from the bike.

Last day of February in New York.
Cold face, clear head. Riding through winter this year has been tough, but today I got a taste of 43°. What temperature makes you stay home? Drop it below. 👇

After a long winter break, it’s time to dust off the bikes and get back out on the road.

Completed. 503/500km in the last days of the year.
The Festive 500 is never just a ride. It’s a ritual. A tough, beautiful way to close the year in the saddle that’s equal parts legs, mind, and heart. A big thanks to everyone who shared a mile, a coffee, or a bit of motivation this year with me. Here’s to more rides, more roads, and more shared moments in 2026.

A small sanctuary hidden outside the city’s constant motion, a place to breathe, reset, and roll on.
