NAME:
Nico Deportago-Cabrera
LOCATION:
Kickapoo, Peoria, Kaskaskia, Potawatomi, Myaamia Lands (Chicago, IL)
ABOUT:
I started cycling when I was about 21 or 22 and I had no driver's license and needed a way to get around the city. It quickly turned from utility to a hobby to a lifestyle. I started working as a bike messenger in Chicago in 2008 and while I am no longer working on in the streets, the 12 years I spent as a courier shaped me as a cyclist.
MEMORABLE RIDE (OR RACE):
Take me back to Greece any time. Any part of Greece. Did I mention how much I love cycling in Greece?
