Virginia is an accomplished short track, XC, enduro, and marathon racer and teaches art history at the University of Utah and serves on the board of directors for the Professional Mountain Bike Instructor Association, PMBIA . Initially attracted to improving their mountain biking skills to be a faster racer without having to train harder, Virginia now gets the most stoke out of helping their students feel more confident and have more fun on their bikes.
Their favorite skills to teach are cornering and braking. Helping people feel like they have more control over their bikes opens up a whole new world of fun! Plus, what’s more fun to say than “ease the squeeze”?
Virginia is certified through PMBIA and USA Cycling Beginner Racer Program.
