Geo Gosling was born in 1970 in Deer Park, CA which is very near the world famous Napa Valley. He attended the University of California, at Davis and earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Fermentation Science. His first job out of school was in the laboratory of Grgich Hills Cellars in Rutherford, CA. After one harvest there, he became the
Cellar Master/Assistant Winemaker at Flora Springs Wine Co. While attending UC Davis he became an avid bicycle rider. He continued riding bicycles after graduating but also started racing them. One fine day after work, Geo went on a bicycle ride. On the way home, just as it was getting dark, Geo tested a law of physics. The law which states that two pieces of matter cannot occupy the same space at the same time. Geo and his bicycle was one piece of matter, the other piece was a pick-up truck. Geo proved, without a doubt that the law is, in fact, a law which cannot be broken.

He received a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), plus a lot of broken bones. His bicycle helmet saved his life, there is no doubt. As it was, he was in the hospital for 14 weeks. That's 14 weeks of really bad food. After he was released from the hospital, he wrote a book about all of the trials and tribulations he has to endure as a result of having an injured brain. He has now written another book on the continuing trials and tribulations of living with an injured brain.
