MBX Connect Mountain Bike Coaching

Connecting you with the best mountain bike experience

I am a certified Level 1 mountain bike instructions with PMBI (Professional Mountain Bike Instructor), and have been coaching for 8 years. I started coaching as I wanted to get more women on the trails, and wanted them to feel safe and confident.

I love coaching brand new to trail riders, but I also enjoy working with people who have been riding for years and have never had any formal coaching, or just need to fine tune their skills (improve cornering, speed and overall riding confidence).

We are a HUGE mountain biking family, heading on various adventures all season long. Our “big” summer trips lately have been following the BC Cup DH series, watching our daughter race on double black trails in Fernie, Panorama, Kicking Horse, Subpeaks, and Silverstar (my FAVORITE bike park). We also head to Burns Lake (photo below), Valemount, Quesnel, Williams Lake and Mackenzie, as much as possible, to RIDE!

My favorite place to ride is anywhere in the Kootenays and my all time favorite DH lines are World Cup-Double Dog (Silverstar) and The Craig-Turducken-Stumptown-Moby Dick (Valemount). I also enjoy pedaling nice cross country loops, despite it getting harder with age. I absolutely love getting out with my kids, however I’m not sure how I feel about my daughter being faster than me on the DH for many years (and now the climbs too), and my son now exceeding my speed on most descents.
