Name: Colin McKernan
Age: 34
Class (XC): Semi-Pro/Singlespeed
Profession: Civil Engineer
Favorite Ride: Any ride that I don’t break something
Favorite Drink: Beer
Most stitches at once & where:  I heal like Wolverine
Worst Race: Laramie Enduro, something always seems to happen
Best Race:  The Squealer for sure but it’s not really a true race.  The best true race was the Mercury Cup and you know this!
I race bikes because:  It is a humble sport.  Even the very best pros don’t act like rock stars, even the roadies I guess.  Maybe it is because cyclists don’t have groupies or make huge bank just to show up at a race and mob for the camera.  Oh, and going fast rules.
