A champion racer during the bicycle craze that swept the United States in the 1890s. After racing locally for several years, he competed against bicyclists from other states and nations in major contests between 1896 and 1906; foremost among these were the six - day team races at the old Madison Square Garden in New York. Maya had lived here as a boy above his family's business, which he later managed on his return to Erie in 1907.
