Tips From The Expert

I´m Mike Sayers and I was a professional cyclist for 14 years.

I had the honor and pleasure of racing the Tour of California several times before I retired from professional athletics at the end of 2008. I´m a Sacramento native and have spent most of my life living here. Now I am raising my own family here in the Central Valley.
