Jared dove headfirst into mountain biking (superman OTB on day 1 lol) on 10 May 2010 and participated in his first trail maintenance day a few weeks later. In June 2010, he signed up for his first mountain bike skills clinic and fell in love with learning how to be a better rider. Fast forward six years, three states, four clinics, and a “couple” of broken bones later and Jared got his first experience at being an instructor—training college students to be better citizens and leaders in the Air Force—and loved every minute of it.In addition to riding, Jared has been actively involved in trail maintenance, planning, building, and advocacy in every state he’s lived in across the nation. Jared loves building and maintaining trails just as much as he loves riding them!In 2023, Jared became a certified mountain bike skills coach, allowing him to combine his love of riding with his joy in helping others become better versions of themselves.
