Years coaching:

Cycling disciplines:

Road, gravel, cyclocross, mountain

My cycling obsession began in 2006 when I bought my first road bike after recovering from a running injury. I loved the bike right away and immediately started training and participating in local road races. A few years later, I tried racing cyclocross, and that became my passion every fall. I logged 125 CX races over the next 12 years! Eventually I also began participating in gravel races and events, and in 2019 (after much urging from friends) I started riding mountain bikes, too.


I currently ride and race numerous cycling disciplines as a masters athlete (road, gravel, cyclocross, mountain bike), balancing training and racing with family and work. I have multiple podiums in cyclocross, including six New Hampshire State Cyclocross Championship podiums (two gold, two silver, two bronze) and several mountain bike wins, as well.


I am a USA Cycling Level 3 and Power-Certified coach. Off the bike I enjoy spending time with my wife and three children (and dog and cat). I am also an avid New England sports fan and spend probably too much time watching and following Boston sports (Patriots, Bruins, Red Sox, Celtics). I am also a financial services professional and run my own practice out of the Commonwealth Financial Group office in Bedford, New Hampshire.

Athlete Testimonials

Paul is an ideal coach for me. He is no nonsense and straight forward. He was not at all hesitant to let me know when my vision of what I wanted to do with my training was going to get me less than optimum results. He did this in a very tactful way. He also helped me to develop a plan to race both gravel and mountain bike in the same season in a way that would hopefully have gotten me the best results for both disciplines....My fellow group riders were chasing me on competitive group rides this early season rather than the usual situation of me just trying to hang on.   - Bruce B.
