About Me: I started riding bikes 10 years ago, just as a way to get around. I found riding gave a sense of independence and strength that improved my mental health so I started biking further distances. Since then, I've sought out new ways to ride to challenge myself, from multiday bikepacking trips to cyclocross. Joining the wtf gravel team and focusing on keeping a faster pace on long distances rides, has given me a sense of direction in this otherwise aimless year.
