We are Roger C. Pierce and Diann V. Dimitri, involved citizens of Gainesville, Florida. During parts of the year, Roger works as an office manager for H&R Block at the Butler Plaza office. Diann is retired.

We were married on March 10, 2001. Diann is originally from Gary, Indiana, though she has spent the last 25 years in Gainesville. Roger is from, variously, Brooklyn, Connecticut, and Miami, Florida, and has lived in Gainesville three times (1966-1970, 1977-1979, and 1991-present).

Roger's primary year-round activity is riding with and supporting the Gainesville Cycling Club. The GCC is a bicycle touring club that supports group cycling in north central Florida. He is the Membership Secretary, Newsletter Editor, Webmaster, and map maker for the club. He is also the Director of the Gainesville Cycling Festival. And finally, he maintains the Florida Bicycle Touring Calendar on the World Wide Web.
