QUOTE/MOTTO
“It never gets easier, you just go faster”

WHY DO YOU RIDE?
Because I just love it. I love the sport, I love the people I’ve met and ride with. I’ve seen so many places and met so many people I wouldn’t have done without picking up a bike.
I hope this continues 💕

SKILL YOU WISH YOU COULD MASTER BUT HAVEN’T (YET)
Cross. One day, I will race cross and be able to Re-mount the bike like a pro!
