Gary Feldstein, 55 year old retired physician who got back into cycling 3 years ago and has logged some 16,000 miles since then, 8,000 of those in the last 12 months including over two dozen organized and or solo unsupported centuries. This year I attempted for the first time and completed three double centuries earning the California Triple Crown. I am volunteering for RAAM as a crew member to get a real feel for what is like and to see if I have what it takes to compete as a racer in RAAM at some point in the future.
