I have this short list of incredible women riders who I am lucky enough to know. All of them are what I call good riders. Not because they are/were incredibly strong and fast, but because they don't talk about it, they just do it. You won't hear any of them brag about their accomplishments because they don't have to. They're willing to hang back with a weaker rider because they don't have to prove anything. They are my role models, my mentors.
