Once upon a time, I realized that there is more to being a promoter than just putting on another race. Fast Forward Racing Productions strives to improve and give back to the cycling community in our own unique way. I am a racer, and being such, I strive to retain that perspective as I carry out all of the things we do here. Every event needs a draw, it needs to be special, and it needs to leave the participant satisfied, telling all of their friends about the awesome event they just went to, and coming back year after year. I hope you find that I really try to bring more to the table than just another race on the calendar. I take pride in providing an enjoyable racing experience for everyone who comes, a fun event and not just another race on the calendar: to not only run a good race, but to create an event that will enhance the cycling community as a whole. A prime objective is to remember the racer first and foremost. I believe that an entity should be able to make a profit off of promoting races, but that the quality and character of those events should never suffer in that pursuit. In the end, everything we do is an attempt to not only build the cycling culture in our local community, but to provide a service and the best event possible.
Biography
Name: Zachary AdamsJob Description: President
My job entails a diverse string of tasks, including but not limited to creative design, public relations, risk management, course designer, product designer, coach, curriculum development, executive director, instruction, team director, sponsorship liason, and small contracting, whatever it takes to make it happen.
About me:
I grew up not really knowing about cycling....I was a pretty unhealthy child all through my youth until I found cycling in 2003. I jumped in head first and haven't looked back. I owe many things in my life to cycling and am so lucky to have found such a deep passion. I've learned some pretty helpful things along the way including working construction and going through culinary school. I've been chasing a spot on the worlds team for 4 years, and am still chasing my dreams as a cat 1 mountain biker and elite cyclocrosser. I take my job seriously from a racers perspective, because I am one! I'm a level 3 USA cycling coach, am working on my level 2 certification, and have been coaching athletes since 2007.
