Hi, I’m Gabe Markowitz. I’ve been living in Philly for 10yrs and have been an avid bike enthusiast for about 4yrs now.
I started out on an Amazon purchased single speed to facilitate my commutes around town. A year or two later, I saw some folks racing fixed gear track bikes through the city streets. The adrenaline junkie in me needed to get in on this action. I saved up enough dough for a proper track bike and was hooked. Fast forward a few years and I’m bike commuting to work and riding centuries on the weekends.
Cycling and the cycling community have lead me to meet so many great people and it has had such a lasting impact on me. There are always new people to meet and new routes to ride and that keeps me coming back for more.
When I’m not on my bike, I’m eating my way though phillys vast food scene. You can always find me at my favorite burger spot (shh gotta keep this one a secret – IFYKYK), putting back burgers, beers, Mac n cheese, and fried Oreos after a long ride.
