  • Name:  Eric Landes    
  • Place of Birth:  Indiana 
  • Team Position:  Maverick 
  • Racing Category: Cat 4 and Masters 
  • Reason Started Cycling: I have always had bicycles, but I think I became more interested once I saw Breaking Away and then went to Indiana University where the story took place. It would be several more years of off-and-on riding before I really got serious, but riding has always been a part of my life and always will be.
  •  Racing Accomplishments: I'll let you know once I race. In a previous life I raced mountain bikes with a fair amount of success. In fact, when I renewed my racing license this year they have me listed as a Cat 2 offroad.... uh, yeah.
