WHY DO YOU LOVE OLYMPIC BIKE SHOP? Every time I step foot into the shop I am greeted with smile or a hug. I find the entire staff to be super friendly and knowledgeable. The mechanics are so professional and quick to get me back out on my bike when I am in need of a repair. I love the variety of trail snacks, socks, gloves, and clothing that OBS carries! The shop is dialed!
Accomplishments
North Tahoe Bike Force
Tahoe City, CA
I spent a couple seasons coaching with The North Tahoe Bike Force, a youth program to keep em moving! The group was formed in 2010 by three Squaw big mountain ski coaches: Alenka Vrecek, Allie Donavon, and Emily Turner. They were looking for ways to keep their young athletes interested in the outdoors during the summertime!
First Bike Race
Downieville, CA
I have only entered one bike race, the Downieville Classic, and found myself on the podium! Racing isn't for me, but it was an absolute blast racing on my favorite trails!
