Joel Jacobson

Joel is a M35 Cat 3 racer who joined the LGBRC in 2007.

Joel first got interested in bicycling because he didn't have a car when he was of the age to have one. (His older sisters were favored with one, but he wasn't.) His bicycle was the main form of transportation available to him, and he fell in love with it.

Then in Feb 2000 he moved to California for work, and raced with no teammates for several years until joining LGBRC in 2007. He does all crit racing, all the time. 

His most notable achievement?  He had a 17-lap solo breakaway during Superweek for a podium finish!

He says, "I keep telling myself 'Next year, I'll get back in shape.' We'll see... In the mean time, I race as either a 3 or a masters 35+, depending on what time the race is."
