Personal Note: When I first started riding, it didn’t take long for me to realize how much I love it. It’s a challenging individual sport that allows you to build a team of people who will push you to become even better. That is what Team Belladium is—a group of beautiful, strong women who are dedicated to not only becoming better individually but to making every teammate better as well. I am so excited about racing this year. The women of Team Belladium are all so strong, and I know we can make a difference in every race!
