From working in the industry, weaving through the streets as a bicycle messenger, to working himself up to a Cat 2 racer. However, during and following his military service Wes sustained some injuries that made cycling difficult, and physically and mentally painful. That was his reality until he found Ride2Recovery (R2R), a cycling program for disabled veterans. \u00a0Since joining Project HERO City of Reno, Wes has found his love for cycling again, participating in R2R Honor rides, local club rides, and competing and receiving a medal during the cycling competition at the Valor Games Far West event in Alameda, CA this past June. Although Wes was back on his bike, he was still struggling with physical pain during his riding which prompted a visit to Julie Young at Silver Sage Sports and Fitness Lab, to review his fit. \u00a0Right away Wes felt the pain in his knee reduced by the changes Julie made during this comprehensive fit. Wes&#8217; next cycling goal is to race in a criterium again. Another cyclist saw Wes&#8217; desire to race again and has offered to ride tandem with Wes during the last Reno Wheelman Tuesday night twilight series&#8230;happy training Wes Washoe!<\/p>\n<\/div><div class='avia-testimonial-meta'><div class='avia-testimonial-arrow-wrap'><div class='avia-arrow'><\/div><\/div><div class='avia-testimonial-meta-mini'><strong  class='avia-testimonial-name'    itemprop=\"name\" >Wes Washoe<\/strong><span  class='avia-testimonial-subtitle '    itemprop=\"jobTitle\" >Navy Veteran\/ Project Hero<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/section><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"parent":276,"menu_order":6,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-611","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/silversagecenter.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/611","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/silversagecenter.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/silversagecenter.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/silversagecenter.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/silversagecenter.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=611"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/silversagecenter.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/611\/revisions"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/silversagecenter.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/276"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/silversagecenter.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=611"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
