Back in August I was looking at ways to limit my travel for two races situated in two different states on back to back weekends. With 2 trips planned by flight and 17k miles on the van already, I was wanting to simplify some how. So I made the hard decision to not head to…
Part II…If you’ve never experienced the Gaspesia 100 it needs to be on your bucket list!!
The start was less than beautiful on my part. The Garmin failed to charge, but luckily I had a backup that would record data but not save. It was better than nothing as I really needed it for timing on such a long course. As we made our way through town and then around a…
Windham Whirlwind Wrap-up
The Windham XC race was a roller coaster of fun with big chunky rocks, sneaky roots and of course a wee bit of east coast mud! It was unrelenting but also so much fun and I’m pretty sure my smile only became larger with each lap. Unfortunately, that was definitely not my feeling going into…
Life On The Road Edition: Clothing Hacks

What a Time to be a Female and Part of the Cycling Industry!
Shrink it and Pink it is no longer the theme, hallelujah! I know many ladies have struggled to find clothes that actually fit and when they do, they are “pinkified” and look like a bouquet disaster. But guess what? Brands have listened to our voices and we are starting to be the “Strong Is Beautiful”…
Trail Rules Suck
Normally I post about racing and life but this one’s a little bit different so feel free to read all, part, or none! Trail rules suck, there I said it, but there is a reason why we have them and we should always follow them! They exist to keep our trails safe, to keep young…
Flashback and a Catch up
Well life ran away and rembering to do this was put on the back burner but we are back at it with new goals, on and off the bike! November: Only raced a few days and I am learning what it means to ride through the elements! At this point racing was only supposed to…
Whew, Life has been a whirlwind this year!
January – I celebrated a new year and raced Cross (CX) nationals and placed on the podium (5th) with a flat! I had never ridden or tried CX before October and it was supposed to be a “fun” way to get ready for base miles. February – Became a MARRIED woman!! Now my riding buddy…
