I volunteer with:
USGP #3 & #4 New Belgium Cup
Upon returning from Chicago and Wisconsin I had three days to spend at home before hitting the road again. My team made it possible for me to compete in Fort Collins at the second round of USGPs and I was thrilled for the opportunity. Equally exciting as the racing was a chance to catch up … Read more
USGP #1 & #2 Planet Bike Cup
After my whirlwind start to the cross season I had a few days before the first round of USGPs to unpack, clean everything, repack the car, look for jobs and mountain bike sponsorship, attempt to pay bills, finish moving in..oh, and train! This season I’ve been lucky enough to have the support of Omnium Bodyworks; … Read more
Mud Sweat & Gears #1 and #2
The day after Cross Vegas felt like eternity..I got about four hours of sleep, flew across three time zones, wandered around Atlanta for a few hours before my work meeting and dinner…The next day we had our final meeting, said our goodbyes and I hit the road for Asheville feeling a variety of conflicting emotions. … Read more
Cross Vegas
I hadn’t been to Interbike in years (my last experience had left a lot to be desired) but had planned on making the trip for work and giving it another shot. I was excited to finally have the chance to race Cross Vegas and visit my good friend, Kim, who studies at UNLV. However, things … Read more
Huber’s Apple Cross
I had been anxiously waiting for the cyclocross season to start and it finally did two weeks after the Tsali Challenge. For the past two years I have had the pleasure of representing Bob’s Red Mill on the cross bike and this season I couldn’t be happier to join the Louisville, KY-based Bob’s Red Mill … Read more
Tsali Challenge
Oh my, it’s been a while…Finally…a Tsali Challenge race report and a return to blogging! Moving left me with very limited internet and just when I was beginning to settle in, life and a whirlwind start to the cyclocross season completely took over in a big way! More on that very soon, but I digress… … Read more
on the move…again
When I needed a vacation the most I got…an unexpected move! Life certainly knows how to stay interesting. Fortunately this time I moved 2 miles instead of 800! After moving 9 times in as many years, doing it again was the last thing I planned for, but it was beyond my control. Dave and I … Read more
“vacation” time
I literally can’t remember the last time I took a real vacation…from work, training, racing, life (at the same time)…I’ve never exactly had a job that offered “vacation” days and I feel as though I’ve been on the go non-stop for years! However, I enjoy my non-traditional lifestyle even though I have to remind myself … Read more
Windham World Cup
Dave returned home after Mont-Sainte-Anne, leaving me on my own for the Windham World Cup. Luckily I was able to coordinate plans with Erin, who was also traveling alone, and we arrived in town on Wednesday. Sarah and Carolyn were staying at the inn with us and it was great to hang out with them! … Read more
Mont-Sainte-Anne World Cup
Thanks to the generosity of friends and family I was able to make it to Quebec to race my first World Cup! Three years ago I sat on a mountain bike for the first time and would have never guessed I’d ever be where I am today. I began racing in Sport because the members … Read more
