RoFA on Food and Wine
My love of food and wine goes back to my early 20’s. As I pursued my professional cycling career, I was lucky to live in cities with extensive food and wine choices. Once I made it to the big leagues in cycling, I traveled around the world to places like Italy, Spain, France, Mexico, Japan, and New Zealand that broadened my food and beverage scope. Through these travels I realized how important having delicious coffee, wine, beer and cuisine experiences mattered to me.
Once I retired from cycling officially in 2015, I made a commitment to explore the world of wine and food by bike. I always loved riding my bike to various food and wine centric places so I created a cycling touring/camp business that would allow me to take my coached athletes and friends to places that would literally “blow our minds” through local food and wine opportunities. The past few years I have dug deep into the study of food and wine, and now I want to offer it as part of my coaching/consulting services.
My Journey
This journey is just starting for me. As you will learn, my quest is about making others happy and finding the same joy that wine has brought me. Often times, when I get done with a hard ride or a long work day, my thoughts move to what will I reward myself with this evening. Every day is a gift so why not enjoy it with what makes you happy and enhances your life! My formal training is a process and I take my “internship” at my local wine shop very serious, but it’s lots of fun too and I look forward to sharing my knowledge with you.
Let’s Get Started
Have you ever wanted to host a party but you weren’t sure what to serve for food and beverage? Instead of spending countless hours at the wine shop or looking for caterers, I can provide upscale consulting services for various canapés with wine and sparkling wine/champagne options or even as detailed as a 4-9 course dinner with wine pairings.
Please contact me if you have interest, as I am committed to bringing you the best beverage and local food options your area has to offer.
