Ian Durand

What I like most about riding my bike and racing is the speed and the community of riders. I love the teamwork and the feeling of the peloton. What I love most about the team is the support and mentorship of my other team mates, like Mr Worden who took me to Gratton and other races. I am thankful for the advice I get from Mr Web and others in the peloton even when I am suffering and dying after a mistimed chase on a Tuesday night ride. My proudest life moments are becoming road and cx state champion in the same year, skiing at nordic nationals, and being able to complete a Tuesday night ride with the peloton. I can`t explain why I love to go for certain things I just want to give certain things a try and make friends along the journey. My goals for 2016 include defending my state jerseys and trying to qualify for triathlon nationals in Ohio. I am a life guard and swimming safety instructor at the YMCA, I love nordic skiing, as well as tinkering with mechanical devices.
