Dan is our head coach, and self-proclaimed king of the trails, at least in his own mind, hailing from the quaint town of Newark, DE.
His love for mountain biking began when he was just a wee lad, riding his trusty Trek bike with gusto around town. His passion only grew stronger as he got older and discovered the joy of off-road cycling, riding the rugged terrain of nearby parks and preserves on his trusty two-wheeled steed.
After years of honing his skills, Dan decided to share his love of mountain biking with the world by becoming a coach. And boy, does he take his job seriously. He spends countless hours pouring over training plans and dreaming up ways to victory.
But don't let his intense focus fool you - Dan knows how to have a good time. When he's not on the trails, you can find him cracking dad jokes. His favorite? "Why did the bike fall over? Because it was two-tired!" Well, we didn't say they were good jokes.
But it's not just mountain biking that captivates Dan's heart - he's also a devoted fan of the scenic beauty that is Dewey Beach. A popular summertime destination for his family, Dan relishes long walks on the beach, breathing in the salty sea air and taking in picturesque vistas of the Atlantic Ocean.
Despite his busy coaching schedule, Dan always finds time to reconnect with nature and indulge in his beloved outdoor activities. Whether it's tearing up the trails on his bike, lounging on the beach with his family, or simply basking in the natural beauty of his surroundings, Dan's appreciation for the outdoors is a cornerstone of his life.
