Four Season's Staff
Four Seasons has access to some of the friendliest and most talented people to crew its rides. Each staff member promises to give 115% plus to make sure each customer has his or her expectations met or exceeded.
 Tim Kneeland
Tim began creating and producing bicycle tours in 1981, cross-country events in 1987 and around-the-world rides in 2000 (Odyssey 2000 - bike tour through 43 countires from Jan 1 to Dec 31, 2000). His former company, Tim Kneeland & Associates, Inc. (TK&A), closed in late 2003. Tim missed cycle touring so he founded Four Seasons Cycling Events in 2006. His goal is to use his extensive experience to produce high quality, reasonably priced and memorable touring experiences for each and everyone of his customers.
 Monica Eddy
Monica, in typical form, jokes around as she puts her whole personality into making sure everyone is having a good time. In addition to being Tim's sister, Monica rode across the USA in 1987 and has been working with Tim for several years. Mo is unequivocally one of the friendliest and most popular staff members our customers have ever met. She will go out of her way to encourage and help people have a great time. Mo has a brilliant sense of humor, keeping everyone laughing from the beginning to the end of any tour she works.
 Dennis Graham
Dennis has been touring and staffing our events since the mid-nighties. He has ridden several bike tours, including across the United States. Dennis was our "MacGyver" during Odyssey 2000, designing, building and maintaining trucks, trailers and our unique shower system. Dennis also ran several months of Odyssey World Cycling Tours in 2003. He also ran the 2007 Big Island Ride. Four Seasons is proud to work with Dennis whenever the opportunity arises. His insight and abilities continue to influence how Four Seasons produces its tours.
 Paula Graham
Paula, as Dennis, has been touring and staffing our events since the mid-nighties. She has ridden across the United States as well. Paula staffed Odyssey 2000 as a key management team member. Most recently, Paula has been leading the American Lung Association's Big Ride Across America from seattle to Washington DC. She is very well organized and highly regarded in the bicycle touring industry. We are fortunate to have Paula working with Four Seasons.
 Forrest Roberts
Forrest, shown with his gorgeous wife Gail, has "wrenched" many cycling events. He has an incredible sense of humor and will keep everyone upbeat, regardless of the weather or circumstances. Forrest often pedals the route and usually begins riding after everyone leaves camp. He also provides mechanical services throughout the day. Four Seasons feels fortunate he is part of our "on the road" team.
 Pierre Carriere
Pierre is a very appealing French Canadian, with an accent and sense of humor to make any event a success. Pierre has worked with Tim for years, from week-long events to staffing all of Odyssey 2000. Pierre is always well liked and makes sure his clients have the time of their lives. Over the past few years, Pierre has guided with several well respected tour operators.
 Bonnie & Ed Mattson
Bonnie and Ed have either ridden or staffed our rides for years, including 3 months on Odyssey 2000. Both Ed and Bonnie have a great sense of humor and make it easy to have fun on our bike tours. They are quick to offer water, snacks or even sandwiches to help make your ride go more smoothly. Bonnie and Ed accompany Four Seasons as often as possible.
 Mark Bauschke
Mark is always a favorite staff person on every tour he works. Mark has crewed several rides, including spending a year traveling and filming Odyssey 2000. He and his partners created four, 45 to 60 minute videos documenting Odyssey's incredible journey around the world from Jan 1 to Dec 31, 2000. Mark is a skilled professional photographer and owner of The Photography Source (www.thephotographysource.com) in Seattle, WA.
 Lyn Yancha
Lyn (bottom in photo) has been offering massages on our events for many years and is always in demand. We can always count on Lyn to offer support to the riders during the day before she sets up her table to begin offering some of the best massages on the West Coast. Lyn owns Century Sports Massage Team (www.centurymassage.com) in Renton, WA. Lyn is pictured with two of her staff, Tomas Huber and Anna Marie Mazzone.
