Bio: Jim started racing in 1999 at the tender age of 42, and by the end of the 2000 season was a "career Category 3". He's never had much of a sprint, but if you give him a few minutes to get his glow plugs warmed up, he's been known to lay down a decent time trial on occasion. Among his past claims to fame are:

2001 BARR Winner, Category 3 (won state TT and hillclimb)
2002 BARR 3rd place, repeating as Cat 3 state TT champ
2003 3rd place, Cat 3 state TT
2004 3rd place, Cat 3 state TT, in both WA and OR

Before handing off the team presidency to Travis Dykstra's capable hands this year, Jim had been President of the team for four years running.
