It’s snowing and cold in Nashville - so join me for a fun Snow Day Series! Since many of us are stuck indoors, let’s make the most of our trainer time. I’ll be hosting daily Zwift rides to pass the time.

Up next was the day I had been waiting for. I’d seen pictures of this epic climb and knew I just had to ride it at some point. Sa Calobra. It did not disappoint. To get to this famous col, we had to get in a few warmup climbs. Our route wound us out of town and up Coll de Femenia increasing our elevation and my excitement level exponentially. We arrived in a little town, Lluc, where we briefly explored an old monastery, before getting back on our bikes riding along a mountain ridgeline (um, they have a thing against guardrails here it seems) that would deposit us at the top of Sa Calobra.

In 2018 I dipped my toe into the cycling world. I was amazed at the power that these women could produce! I did well in road races, but lacked in critierums. I learned a lot about tactics and racing in close proximity to other riders! I’ve raced my way up to a Cat. 3 rider. Over the last few years my excitement and passion for triathlon has not wavered, but my excitement and passion for cycling has continued to grow.
