1-2 times a month in between races. I try and ride some hills, trails, and tracks each time I go ride. I love to spend weekends in Pipestone riding trails with family and friends!

WHAT ARE YOUR WORDS OF WISDOM TO OTHER FEMALES IN THE INDUSTRY OR WHO MAY BE INTERESTED?

Don’t let anyone stop you from chasing your dreams in this industry! There’s a lot of people out there who think women don’t belong in this industry. Ignore them and do what you love!
