Sam is a lifelong athlete, and formed a strong passion for endurance sports in high school where he ran cross country and track in middle Tennessee. That quickly transitioned to racing sprint and Olympic distance triathlons, where he trained alongside European pros. During this time he was on track to earning his pro card for draft legal triathlons.
However, in 2017 he started road racing in college for Liberty University, and instantly fell in the love with the sport of cycling. He went from buying his first USAC license in May 2017, to earning his Cat 1 upgrade in August of 2018. He’s since then across the US and internationally. He has elite level racing experience in Belgium, and gained incredible insight in race prep, tactics, and mindset.
Sam has raced many criteriums and road races around central Texas, alongside national and even world class competitors. He’s competed in the D1 men’s Pro field at the Winston Salem Classic, and finished top ten at the 2019 Tulsa Tough Pro/1 field. He’s also raced in the famous Redlands Bicycle classic in 2019.
Sam currently races for a men’s D1 USA crit team. He additionally races on eRacing platforms such as Zwift and RGT, and in endurance gravel events.
When Sam isn’t on the bike training or racing, he also works as a full time bicycle mechanic and coach. He and his wife Cheyenne currently live in Greenville, SC and are super excited to relocate to Southern Utah! In his spare time, Sam loves spending time with his wife and their dog Callie, and enjoys hiking and exploring the outdoors.
