Erika Pond
My name is Erika and I’m a 28 year old Minneapolis native who loves to bike especially on dirt, gravel and snow!
Four years ago I signed up for my 1st sprint triathlon to try to become more active after college. That not only led to my 1st bike purchase but also me competing in many triathlons, duathlons, and running races of all distances culminating in my first full marathon in the fall of 2015.
I had also been dipping my toes into mountain biking while still training for running events but after my marathon I was ready to make the plunge. I have since finished my first full year of bike racing, both fat bike in the winter and mountain this summer and it has been an absolute blast! In the past year I have traveled all over the country to different races and have created the best memories because of biking. I love how much confidence and strength mountain biking gives me and the opportunities it opens up and would love to share that feeling by getting more women out on the trails. So if you are interested (no matter what skill level) let’s hit the trails together!
