Secretary Candidate - David Lunt
- 54 years old – dual US / UK citizen, and resident in Katy for 20 years
- Have been riding bikes since earlier childhood – mainly BMX freestyle in my teens, then MTB in my 20’s. After a hiatus I took up the sport again about 4 years ago.
- FBMBA member since 2023.
- Professionally, I am a very senior Loss Adjuster specializing in large industrial / commercial insurance claims for Property and Business Interruption and Liability. I have significant experience in insurance, legal liability issues, local authorities, dispute resolution, etc.
- Scout Leader and Merit Badge counselor for Cycling.
- With age (and injury recovery time) increasing I am looking to give back to our wonderful biking community in other ways, and I believe my experience and skill sets would be an asset to the FBMBA board in the role of Secretary, or in another capacity.

Secretary Candidate - William Fisher
I have been an FBMBA Trail Captain for two years on our River Park trail system. Not only assisting with River Park, but I also played an integral part of our rebuild from the 2024 Brazos River flood and Hurricane Beyrl. I am a Fort Bend County native, a Marine Corp veteran and I’m highly involved in the community. I am interested in joining the FBMBA board to continue my involvement in the advancement of our Sugar Land trails and beyond. I enjoy meeting and working with great people in the MTB community, who have the same passion about this sport as I do.

Secretary Candidate - Federico Poggioli
I have been a member of FBMBA since 2019, and have been riding the Sugar Land trails since I was transferred to the US back in the last quarter of 2017. Joined John Procter's ProBikes Texas shop in February 2024.
I think that running the Secretary position under John's guidance would be a plus for continuity. I have very strong administrative skills from decades in the oil & gas industry with several companies.

Chair Candidate - Dave Burdette
Dave Burdette is our current Chair having served 2 years and has been highly active and instrumental in negotiating with the various land owners in Sugarland to sustain and expand the trail system we have today including Brazos River Trails (City of Sugarland), River Bend Trails (CoSL), Oyster Creek Trails (CoSL), and NTT Trails (New Territory HOA and Levee Improvement District 7). Dave Burdette is running unopposed for another 2 year term.

Vice Chair Candidate - Diana Vargas-Le
Diana has served on the FBMBA board for several years, 1st as the Director of Public Relations and presently as Vice Chair for the past year. Diana has been instrumental in leading membership drives and developing relations with the City of Sugar Land to promote our trails. Diana is running unopposed for another term.

Treasurer Candidate - Ryan Matocha
Ryan is a professional in corporate accounting and finance and our FBMBA treasurer for the past 2 years succeeding Adriano Pangelinan. Ryan has done an outstanding job as our treasurer, keeping track of all the budget and expenditures on a very timely basis. In addition, Ryan has been very active over his term in developing and conducting race events and all the necessary logistics required, including timing systems. Ryan is running unopposed for another term.
