David Hart has ridden and raced for 15 years on the road and dirt. He is also a cycling official and race promoter for races in the Oregon Bicycle Racing Association. David knows through personal experience how to balance work and a family with kids while training and racing, and he looks forward to helping others balance their lives for optimal performance. Building on many years of customer service experience, David followed his passion and returned to school in Exercise Science. David holds an Associate of Applied Science Degree in Fitness Training and is a NSCA Certified Personal Trainer. One of David's several areas of expertise is the role of nutrition and recovery methods in athletic success.

David enjoys seeing others getting into the sport and has helped mentor the novice men and women at the weekly races at Portland International Raceway (PIR). He has also mentored a training ride out of a local college in Portland. While attending school, he has helped fellow students to start cycling by providing proper bike fit and nutritional guidance and has provided similar support to more experienced riders.

David first picked up a mountain bike when he found himself a little out of shape and had been disappointed in his performance in a charity fun run. After a year of riding and running the local trails around Seattle, he transitioned to the road bike and joined the local racing club and has been racing ever since. David’s main love is road racing but he enjoys cyclocross as a switch from the road scene. He also runs, swims and hits the local trails with the MTB as ways to cross train and have fun traveling with the family.

David has participated regularly in the Master 40+ category in Oregon racing, having competed in Northwest stage races such as the Mt. Hood Classic and Elkhorn Stage Race. He has also completed organized rides such as the Chilly Hilly, Kitsap Color Classic, and Seattle to Portland (which he has completed eight times, each time as a single day ride). 

David lives in Washougal, Washington with his wife and two children. In addition to coaching, he also enjoys traveling and watching movies with the family.
