Greg is the digital editor at VeloNews.
He’s been on and around bikes since his early teens, while working at local bike shops, and dabbling in the local racing scene. He still geeks-out on bikes, gear, apparel, and accessories as much now, as when he first discovered bikes and racing.
Previously, Greg has been on staff at Bicycling magazine, and was a contributor for Active.com.
A Philadelphia-native, when Greg’s not on a bike he can be found pulling handles in long, skinny racing boats along Boathouse Row, and of course enjoying Yard’s IPA after any activity.
