Inclusitivity is a word used easily in conversation. It is also one that requires thought in real life. Ever seen an article of clothing that you loved and hurried home to find out that it was no longer available in your size? This scenario has happened to everyone at one time or another. What was …

Strangers to Friends
Whew…stepping outside of our comfort zone is easy to talk about but really hard to do sometimes. It’s even harder to trust someone else when you do so. As we all know 2021 was a year of change and growth. As I sat inside my home missing my friends I wanted to come up with …
Grace, humility and a strong dose of reality
Take some time to ponder this statement…..“How willing are you to consider that your life is the way it is, not because of the weight of your circumstances or situation, but rather the weight of self talk that pulls you down?

Making lemonade out of lemons…..
Pretty much all of 2020 could be described this way for most of us….if you are in the bike industry and trying to host events this most definitely would describe your year. BUT it also has made us stronger as riders and changed the way we look at things….or at least it has for me. …
Where the blacktop ends…girl power in Michigan
Everyone talks about the romanticism of loading their bike up and taking off for a long weekend. We throw that idea around a lot at our house and with friends….about two months ago, after races had been cancelled and everyone was feeling pretty down, I threw out the idea of an all girls weekend of …

Sometimes we just need a reset button
One of the most common questions we are asked is “why do you go live off grid for two weeks each summer with your kids?” Imagine two weeks where you see no one else but your immediate family……your cell phone doesn’t work and most of the time the only thing on the agenda for the …
