Meet ’n Greet
I am a professional mountain bike racer and specialize in Enduro style racing! I started riding at a young age and competed in cross-country most of my life, until I found the gravity side of things! Racing downhill is just more fun!
Favorite Place in the Wild
Zion National Park is special to me! My husband, Kyle, and I always go there after he finishes his biggest event of the year, the Red Bull Rampage.
Fast Talkin’
HOW DO YOU HAVE FUN, KICK BACK, RELAX, AND “TAKE IT EASY”?
I kick back and Take it Easy™ with my toes in the sand and a margarita in hand at the beach. Or you can catch me riding my bike with my main four-legged friend, Alabama.
First Car
Ford 150
Road-trippin' music
I have satellite radio and am obsessed with Channel 53! Chill.
Go-to road trip snack
Chili Mangos and Yerba Mate help keep me focused.
Spirit animal
Arctic Fox
If you could stand in someone else’s shoes...
Kelly Slater! I would love to feel what it’s like to surf pipeline and how it must feel to have the most amazing blue eyes in the world! Ha-ha.
What would your TED talk be about?
How to succeed in the bike industry as a female athlete.
Guilty Pleasure / Indulgence?
I don’t even want to admit it…. but The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
