Cycling Team Rider - Profile

Jesse Moore

Name: Jesse Moore

Nickname: Nothing clever from the California Giant guys yet. My old team used to call me "crazy legs" because of my high cadence, then it was just "old man" because I could actually buy beer. Lately they've taken a liking to "berry boy" and "shortcake".
