Ryan is a born and bred mountain boy hailing from the People's Republic of Boulder, where it's not often you'll find him inside due to the amazing playground right outside his door. He has done many amazing things in his life, but driving a car is not one of them. He's never had a driver's license, choosing instead to ride his Duzer Cruzer everywhere he goes. After completing two life-changing years in the Peace Corps in Honduras, he got on his bicycle and rode it home to Colorad. Two years later he rode from Maine to Key West down beautiful Highway 1.
He bikes to inspire others to get out of their cars. He bikes because he loves it. He bikes because girls love riding on the handlebars.
When he's not biking, he works as a freelance video journalist/TV host, working mostly with the Travel Channel. Ryan is a one-man crew, shooting, editing and hosting all his segments.
