About Me

I'm a native of Portland and I've been commuting by bike since I was 12, when I asked my mom how far I could go on my bike and she said, "As far as your little legs will take you."

Little did she know...

Since then, my little legs have grown some and taken me all over Portland, the Columbia Gorge, Reach the Beach, Seattle to Portland, the wine country around Salam, around Crater Lake and mountain biking in Oakridge, Bend and Sandy, OR.

This fall my partner and I will be going on our first Cycle Oregon tour and I can't wait!

I have five bikes (road, mtb, travel/folding, cross and xtracycle hauler), and I'm told that I'm cut off from getting any more. For now. :)

Why I Joined Sorella

My friend Jana told me I could ride with a bunch of cool women. Turned out she was right!

Favorite Ride

My newest favorite is one I call the Vancouver Explorer that I learned from the Portland Velo Thursday morning ride. Not to hilly, not too flat, featuring long open roads, a trip around a pretty lake and a coffee shop/cafe stop in the middle. What more could you ask for?

(See the rides section for a link to the route)

Racing...

Colleen cheers on her teammates

If we're not racing, we're cheering. Thanks for running up that hill a dozen times, Colleen! 

...and recreation

Fun on a group ride. See, we're not all about racing ;-) more photos.

The bicycle is just as good company as most husbands and, when it gets old and shabby, a woman can dispose of it and get a new one without shocking the entire community.
