I have only REALLY been riding for a year and a half. I've been fortunate enough to be surrounded by some amazing riders that have helped me advance my riding significantly over the past few months.

I have always heard that Windrock was the gnarliest place in the southeast to ride, and so I had my doubts on my ability to tackle the terrain. But I stayed confident in my ability and went out there to have an amazing time, regardless if I could ride it or not. The least I could do is try.

Willem drove down from Rhode Island to practice this week, and will be racing in the 2024 Tennessee Nationals Enduro. You will notice he is not in many of the videos.... and thats because he is fast... REALLY fast. I hope he is killing it out there today and tomorrow. Kris is always fun to ride with and if he's not absolutely dominating the trail, its always funny to watch him not be able to unclip his pedals and gracefully falling, multiple times lol.

Had the pleasure to meet Aaron Gwin and see the areas leading up to the new bike shop they are renovating. I am super excited to check it out when it is finished, and I CANNOT wait to make my way back out to Windrock.

If you'd like to learn more about some of the amazing riding Tennessee has to offer, drop a comment down below and I'll be happy to reach out!

CHEERS!
