My third trail riding spot on my 2024 road trip. This time, I was headed from Rapid City’s mountain trails over to a place that is a bit less aggressive; Minneapolis, Minnesota. Highways 60 and 169 brought me to the Star of the North where I could jump into the Mall of America to get […]

Another great day at the Bentonville Bike Festival in Arkansas! I was relaxing at the YT Mill and chatting with my friends before we hit the trails. YT’s brand new digs in town are amazing! But more on that later. A quick ride across downtown. When I say quick, I mean that our e-bikes brought […]

The drive from Memphis Tennessee into Arkansas took me across the Mississippi River and into a storm front. The original plan was to stop and kill a few days in Dardanelle or Russellville and ride Mount Nebo – I was told it was riding incredibly well and that it was a whole lot of fun. […]

In March of 2024, the Women’s Mountain Biking Network hosted an all-inclusive group ride at the Sedona Mountain Bike Festival. It was a pretty solid turnout.

Leaving Park City required an early start. I had to drive west on I-80 through Salt Lake City and across Utah and then Nevada. It’s a beautiful drive, especially in the morning light, but it is a long day on the 4Runner! I was headed to Truckee where I would spend the night and then […]

This was a mellow roll through the Slickrock trail in Moab, Utah. I had a few hours to kill on my way to Park City, and Park City was expecting rain, so this seemed like a great place to get a few miles in along the way.

June 18. Father’s Day. I’m not too big on Father’s Day. This isn’t because I don’t enjoy being a father (in fact, I love my kids more than anything in the world!!) I just feel like every day is Father’s Day when you have such awesome kids. The first stop was at 2nd Avenue Sports. […]
