Ron is by far the fastest bent rider I've ever seen, he's been to several event rides in the Houston area and I can't come close to catching him

I've ridden with Ron twice. He is wicked fast.

He was at an event ride in Magnolia a couple of weeks ago, I started near the front of the pack and still didn't see him take off. I've got him on video after the ride when his wife pulled in.

Hasn't been riding bents that long either, amazing rider.
