2nd place this year @portlandcriterium. I LOVE THIS RACE. I LOVE THE COMPETITION. It’s such a blast to rip corners and thread the needle to execute the right line every lap - even when the pressure increases. Portland, you have my <3 The weekend was SO special outside of the racing. Shaking the CEO of @nike’s hand, touring the campus (mega thank you @jimmydaugherty, you’re my BOY!), going to the soapbox derby, and having maybe a little too much fun after hours (yes, we were successful in yet another salsa venture at Aztec Willies). I took the bull by the horns and tried to control as much as I could racing alone. And regardless of the results, I’m very glad to say I held my own well this weekend - controlling heavily and securing a 2nd place by inches on Day 2. It’s also hard to be unhappy with a second place when you give it your all and you lose to the @almurrison + @samlmorris combo 1-2 punch hahaha And a big thank you to all the competitors that lined up this weekend. A pleasure to race against, but also with you all. Thank you to @srbeards, the staff, and supporters of this event for making it one of my favorite trips of the year. Portland is a city full of adventure, of creative thinkers and filled to the brim with people who have impacted me in ways that extend far beyond cycling. I still need to see those Portland Cherry Blossoms, so I will be back. Until next time. ❤️🫱🏽‍🫲🏾 📸: @devinfeilen (amazing work, brother) #portland #smithoptics #proathlete #nikecycling #alwaysforward I tried 😂 well done @almurison Should’ve just pedaled harder 😩 At least @smithoptics kept me stylish on the podium!

Excited to actually chat! Style points 💯 That basso 😮‍💨

The Story Behind Corolla’s Wild Horses For more than 400 years, wild horses have called North Carolina’s Outer Banks Home. Believed to be descendants of Colonial Spanish Mustangs brought over in the 1500s, these wild horses have adapted to life on these barrier islands in a way not many other species have. Read more about Corolla’s Wild Horses on our blog, and watch the full Pursue Your Thrill: Outer Banks film on our YouTube channel.
