    Super-fun morning ride with some of my favs! @susiesfarmer @ditchflower @staraffolter and @gracejbranum...who missed the selfie so here's a pic of us from BBR! Love riding bikes!
    Sometimes we get things we don't deserve...that make us better than before...I'm so lucky...6 years of marriage and counting! ❤ (photo from 2010)
    Only 41 women started #shenandoah100...out of almost 500! I was the 14th woman to cross the line...more than 100 racers didn't finish. Check out the link in my bio for a recap. I was so grateful to have support from our friends (and @Spencerwhittier's teammmates) on @motormileracing and of course, my @teamcatfight teammates on race weekend...and I couldn't have survived without Coach Carp getting my fitness ready. I've really been blown away by everyone's kindness and encouragement. I'm by far not the fastest bike racer, but I really do love racing my bike no matter the outcome. Bike racing has helped me learn to let go of a lot of insecurities and focus on what's most important to me...and worry less about what others think about my appearance or how I *should* live my life. I'm honored and so fortunate to get to have these experiences. Cheers! 📸@jackanderson2018 . . . . @skratchlabs @pactimo_official @pactimocustom @smithoptics @handupgloves @konabikes @stoke_signal @industry_nine @noxcomposites
    Start line vibes at #shenandoah100... What a pretty morning for a bike race! 📸 @wallis.cody
    It's not easy being related to me, but these women figured out a way to tolerate it. Love visits from my mom, sis, and niece! ❤❤❤
    I don't normally race my road bike, but when I do, I make sure it's the toughest omnium in the southeast. Was it enough to distract my nerves from this weekend's Shenandoah 100? Definitely not. But it was fun throwing 3 intense (but short) races into the mix of oober long rides on my mtn bike. Here's a look back at my road race (check out that post-Raccoon Mtn climb relief face), the most wild and fast criterium, and the time trial (least-aero rider award right here). Fun times at #RiverGorgeOmnium but really excited for mtn bike and cyclocross season!
    3 races in 2 days...definitely wasn't smiling like this climbing up Raccoon Mountain but happy to hang in there for a weekend with all the roadies. 💃🙃😋
    Survived another River Gorge criterium without getting dropped or crashing...#winning for me! So happy for @ditchflower getting 2nd! Love racing with some of my fav women in the whole world! @gracejbranum @dogsandbikesrule
    Today I had a black bear, a hawk, lots of butterflies, a tortoise, and a rabbit cross my path while spending the day riding gravel in the Cohuttas. I lucked out with the rain and ended up at the Cisco store during the downpour. The sunshine came out just as I was finished filling up my bottles. Cheers! . . . @skratchlabs @pactimo_official @konabikes @stoke_signal @handupgloves
    Had a fun 6+ hours in the beautiful rural #Tennessee mountains (minus the poopy, wet horse trail)...grateful for good company! What a great day! (even though I'm big time missing @spencerwhittier) . . . @teamcatfight @skratchlabs @pactimo_official @stoke_signal @smithoptics @handupgloves @cycle_sport_chattanooga
    Monday fun day. #WhittierCats
    Sunday finish line vibes: When you had a blast during the race but know Monday is just around the corner (and you still have a long drive home). 🤣
