I don’t remember learning to ride a bike, but I do remember the sense of freedom and enjoyment of riding that I had as a kid. l rode a lot until I became a teenager and moved on with other things in life.
Fast forward to my early 30’s, I sustained a catastrophic running injury that left me thinking I would never run again. I turned to my road bike and regained that sense of love for cycling.
Present day, I ride in a road club, train for and race triathlons at the age group elite level and attempt to compete at cyclocross.
I’m a mom of 2, and have a busy career in Pharmaceuticals science. Cycling offers the break I need to clear my mind.
You can most often find me at the donut shop post ride with my friends and the biggest cup of coffee available.
I’ve been a fan of Peppermint since the day they launched! I love to support Canadian business and let’s face it, fashion is one of the most fun parts of riding. My favourite item from Peppermint is the bib shorts- there is no other brand that I could wear.
