OUR COACHES

OUR COACHES ARE THE BEST

You might talk about your origin story, your team, highlight awards or recognitions, or share photos. Tap into your creativity. You’ve got this. The way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.

    Laura Neighbors has a passion for sharing the joy of mountain biking. With years of riding and racing experience, she thrives on empowering others and helping riders build confidence.

Her energy is infectious, and she loves working with beginners—kids and adults alike—showing them they can achieve more than they ever imagined.
