Who do you admire the most?
There are many people I admire as my hero in the sport of cycling, and I believe I find new people each day that motivate me to ride and work even if that is someone as big as a world tour rider and a small level of local riders who have made an impact on me. My coach Curtis Tolson is also someone I would consider a hero as he has a huge impact on the cycling community as well as has made a huge impact on my life and cycling. As well as my mother as she has supported me throughout everything.

Reece started cycling when he was running cross country and track as a way to cross train, as he had been running for 7 years at that point. Reece rode every once in a while, by himself as a way to get more fitness and always found it fun. After his junior year of track in high school he was burnt out and did not have the passion for running anymore. So, he decided to buy a road bike and ride hoping to gain the joy back for running. After riding with a group for the first time he fell in love with cycling and decided that he wanted to pursue cycling fulltime.
