New team dog @ncldisruptorscc?!πΎ Celebrated World Bicycle Day racing local at @rundlemountaincycling road festival!

Feeling inspired by all the Victoria @belgianwaffleride & @unboundgravel rider posts, so went on my own gravel adventure close to home! I'm going to stick with racing crits for now, but it sure is fun to explore new roads π²π¨π¦π . . #happinesswatts #gravel #explore #adventure #alberta #cycling #canada #dontblink
It was the best day kicking off with the @fastandfemale Girls run in Canmore & then a beautiful ride up the legacy trail to Banff with @sara_poido ! . It was inspiring to run with over 100 young girls as they cheered each other on, made new friends, & built confidence through a positive sport experience πββοΈ For Sara and myself, sport played such a big role in our lives growing up that it became our current profession! My hope is that events like this one help to empower the next generation & keep girls participating and benefiting from sport for life β€οΈ Maybe their definition of a great day in the future will also be doing something active with friends! π² . . #fastandfemale #girlsrun #femalempowerment #canmore #banff #happinesswatts #girlsinsport

@joemartinstagerace πΊπΈ The roads in Arkansas are just as tough as I remember from racing back in 2015! β°οΈβ°οΈ . The women were down in numbers from some bad luck before the start, but we did our best to ride to a couple of top 10 finishes during the week and worked on some process goals as a team π΄ββοΈ The men stole the show with @riley_sheehan winning the race on time bonuses in a thrilling final crit stage while supported by the whole team!

Most consistently speedy here at @usaspeedweek !π₯ It was a great week, winning the overall series title, with @ericazaveta also finishing on the podium in 3rd for @ncldisruptorscc. Lots of opportunities to learn and grow as a team over 7 days of racing as we worked on sharpening our crit skills. I'm already looking forward to our next events with the full squad β€οΈ . Our week unfortunately did end with a crash on the last day. Just when you think you're in the clear, bike racing will get you. However, the good news is Erica is okay after getting checked overπWishing a fast recovery to the other riders involved .

Just when we thought winter was over... βοΈβοΈβοΈ It's been a very different spring compared to the last decade, where I would normally be over in Europe racing the classics. It's been fun to follow along as a fan this year & watch past teammates achieve a lot of success!

Enjoyed team camp this past week with the @ncldisruptorscc in Phoenixπ Looking forward to spending the year focused on racing the new @NCLracing series and getting back into the American crit scene with this great group of people. I honestly didnβt expect to be lining up for events this year, but opportunities arise and plans change in life! Iβm excited for the chance to help build something new as NCL brings a different perspective to American racing, while supporting gender equity and diversity in the sport. After a few trial runs at camp, I can say from experience that the races will be full of action, and winning teams will need to be both tactically smart and physically strong. Stay tuned for the first event in Miami - April 8th!Β . . #bikeracing #teamcamp #dontblink #cycling #equality #arizona #nclracingΒ Β Β πΈ @veloimages
