Favorite/proudest cycling moment: Helping a teammate try to win a series:  She didn’t win, but she put herself out there by saying she was going for it (not easy to do!), we had a team plan, and we worked for her.  It was very special!

The best thing about racing my bike is: Training and racing with others with similar desires - feeding off of each others energy!!  I love to hear others race goals, particularly when they themselves are stoked about them.
