Such a great training with the girls towing each other into the steeps on Out Chute! Go team! #fastfunfierce @sweetlinesjrracing #nationalcheerleaders 😹🤘
Podium shots! Yes podiums are cool, and I’m equally as stoked on the teams progression in their racing skills and in their mental game! Pre-race routine, performance mindset, being in the now, and trusting their abilities are all helping everyone to get faster. Thanks @sportspsychcoach for the MGCP program! Oh and Sweetlines won the first of the NW Cup team competitions! What a fun new edition to the race weekends! @nw_cup @sweetlinesjrracing @sweetlinesjrracing @sweetlineseliteracing

Congrats @bentley_bikes for his first Jr Expert race! He seeded P12 and with a rock stuck in his cleat, he had a zesty run through the lower chutes and managed to get P19! Way to keep fighting all the way to the finish! 😺🎉 @sweetlinesgravityteam

I love how Elo gets low and forward before stapling the edge of the roots into the chute. My favorite part is that he came in a little hot and wasn’t going to make the turn so he committed to a new line and hopped over the log to make the turn. We call that committing to the new line! @djklein #norcobikes @sweetlinesgravityteam
Katie Dalton just wrote this super cute kids book “Ryan Goes Mountain Biking”! As she says, it celebrates a connection to nature and how that can foster responsibility, courage, resiliency, and FUN! And the things I love about MTB! Ages 3-7. www.wholekidsbooks.com She also has a really cool handout, “Raising Thoughtful Risk-Takers, Rethinking “be careful “ and 30 things to tell your kids instead.” 😺💕👍 @wholekidbooks
