My parents bought me a mountain bike a year ago for my birthday. I had a lot of fun covering the trails at Mt. Hood. However, it wasn’t until a friend invited me to the Coast Hills Classic that I discovered just how awesome mountain biking is! Since then I have participated in the Alsea Falls Switchback OBRA XC Championship, Pickett’s Charge, and Salem Short Track. Ryan Eisley introduced me to Team REALL and Evan. I enjoy being part of a team and riding with my brother, Ryan, and Jeremy. I am excited to experience cyclocross for the first time this Fall. Since I am 14 years old and in the 8th grade, I look forward to many years of competition.
