    She's one cool chick! Makes me want to ditch the 9-5 and chase my own cycling dreams...

    Very good article. Not many people would have the guts to do what she did. Leaving her job like that, but most people aren't blessed to have that kind of natural talent.

    Great article--thanks for sharing it. I used to ride with her coach, when he was a racer and I was a hanger-on. Nice guy.

    No kidding? That's cool.

    Yeah, it was a great story. Good pics to go with it too. I really have to admire her. That takes guts.

    Good article---seems she was born to ride (and win!). Her story also demonstrates that money can't make you happy. Go Evie!!!
