Baird rides a 6.5 inch travel bike that is pushing 40 lbs.  He has never worn spandex.  He has never shaved his legs.  Despite these handicaps, Baird intends to be a dominant force on the Mercury Payment Systems team.  The team's moto "You think we process credit cards fast?  You should see how fast we ride bikes." is a direct reference to Baird's blazing fast trail speeds.
