ABOUT Tim
Tim's history with cycling started when he first learned to ride a bike at 2.5 years old. With the urge to go faster, Tim started racing dirt bikes at age 4, and continued to race for almost 10 years until he increased his participation in team sports and clubs such as 4-H and rugby. Despite being involved in many organizations, Tim continued to ride bikes into high-school where he started a Mountain Biking club.
After high-school, Tim studied Kinesiology at San Diego State University. On top of full time school, Tim continued playing rugby with the D1 SDSU team. After a year Tim joined the cycling team at SDSU and tried his first ever mountain bike race. Tim's passion for cycling was reignited after winning the Cat 3 race, and in his 4th year at SDSU he became the president of SDSU's cycling team and a Cat 1/A racer in all mountain biking events.
After college, Tim put racing on hold to pursue his Doctorate in Physical Therapy at UCSF. After 3 years, Tim received his Doctorate in PT and started an orthopedic residency in PT. Tim passed the board exam and is recognized as an Orthopaedic Clinical Specialist in Physical Therapy. Most recently, in 2024, Tim completed an orthopaedic manaul therapy fellowship making him one of 2,000 PTs nationwide to have the FAAOMPT credentials.
During his PT education, Tim also completed extensive training in bike fitting and is a certified bike fitter through Serotta International Cycling Institute (SICI).
