Joined zwift late august 2020 when inland SoCal was in heat waves, fires, smoke filled skies, and pandemic which meant could you not ride outside. Kept on zwift due local road traffic is really bad and being able to just get my ride in without dealing with traffic or risking car-bike collisions on top on bad roads plus highway work just outside my neighborhood. Race CX and wanting to start doing gravel events/races. Transgender cyclist, I like the respectful community for people who do not fit in the two boxes. Have started racing on zwift in 2021to help with outdoor riding/racing.
