Favorite Bike Rides
Here are three rides I've loved, ranked. Each one has a few notes below it.
-
Mount Washington Auto Road Bicycle Hillclimb
- 7.6 miles straight up Mount Washington in New Hampshire
- Roughly 12% average grade — one of the toughest hill climbs in cycling
- Rode it in 2024 — easily one of the hardest things I've done on a bike
-
Alpine Loop
- About 20 miles, a loop through American Fork and Provo Canyons
- Roughly 3,000 feet of climbing
- Best in the fall when the leaves are changing
-
Provo Canyon
- Easy paved trail, great for a recovery day
- Follows the river the whole way up
- The go-to ride when I'm short on time
Watch: Trials Cycling by Danny MacAskill
This is a classic cycling video I love — Danny MacAskill's "Imaginate," produced by Red Bull. If you've never seen trials cycling, this is a great intro.

Try My Web App
For the web app part of this project, I built a Finance-themed Wordle. Instead of normal 5-letter English words, the target word is always a finance term like YIELD, BONDS, or TRADE. After each round, the game shows you the definition so you can actually learn something.
