“With over 20 years of specific coaching experience, Angi is one of the most talented, and professional coaches in all of mountain biking. Her knowledge base is vast, and her instruction translates in an efficient and fun way to improve confidence on the trail. I am impressed by her attention to detail and easy-going demeanor. Angi has built a great support team to provide an incredible service for all levels of riders.
Skills development is a process for everyone; male, female, young, old, beginner, intermediate, all the way to the pro level. It is really nice to have a trained eye give feedback to make gains. I have learned a lot from Angi, and will continue to recommend her to everyone I know!”

“I recently took a private lesson and continuing education course with Radical Roots MTB during our time in Bellingham. Angi, our instructor, is a legend in the industry and one of the best instructors in the country. Her communication style is welcoming yet professional. We were able to dive into many topics where other instructors get tripped up or are less confident. The information was presented clearly from both a rider standpoint and a professional instructor. It was awesome to learn from her and the magic that she gives out in Bellingham.”
“As a rider, Angi has helped me to refine and better execute my skills and then helped me step up to the next level. As a new coach, she provided a great example of how to teach and how to interact with students. I love her communication style and demeanor. She explains skills in a manner which make them easy to understand (which means a better chance at executing them properly!) and provides great positive encouragement as students progress through learning attempts. I highly recommend Angi as a coach, whether you are a new or experienced rider.”
