The North American Enduro Cup (NAEC) is, in my opinion, the premier enduro event in North America, featuring a full two days of racing, fresh-cut stages, and a wide variety of terrain that attracts the top talent from all over the U.S. (and internationally) to the small town of Kellogg, Idaho. For the second year…

Same, but Different: Back to BCBR
I first competed in the BC Bike Race in 2024, thanks to the support of Rocky Mountain Bikes, and in the process, formed a new posse of friends. When we saw that the 2026 edition of BCBR would be the final race in the traditional 7-day format, some of us decided that we would reunite…
PMBAR
The Pisgah Mountain Bike Adventure Race (PMBAR) is a race I’ve heard about for a number of years, but never actually been able to attend until now. The basic premise is that you race with a partner, making your own route to various checkpoints in the Pisgah forest, and returning back to the start/finish line…

Meet the 2026 Ride Fierce Race Scholarship Recipients!
Wow, wow, wow. Everything about the Ride Fierce Race Scholarship is still a bit overwhelming to me. What started as a pipe dream to get a few more women at the start lines of some of my regional mountain bike races has expanded beyond anything I ever thought possible. This year, there were 33 applicants…
Hindsight is 20/20
They say hindsight is 20/20, but that clarity never comes if you never take the time to reflect. It’s equally true that a single number, in isolation, cannot possibly tell a full story. Though it’s an exaggeration, I feel like, in the races that mattered, I finished last (or close to last) nearly every time…
Back for 2026: The Ride Fierce Women’s Race Scholarship
Last year, I launched the Ride Fierce Women’s Race Scholarship. My hope was that I would be able to help a few women overcome a few of the barriers that may have prevented them from otherwise doing their first mountain bike race. With the help of a few friends and sponsors, I was able to…
What is the Ride Fierce Women’s Scholarship?
I asked the 2025 Ride Fierce Women’s Scholarship alumni to share a few words about their experiences… and this is what they had to say.
