I find it amazing how much downhill racing has progressed and flourished over the past 10 years - especially in the women's field. What used to be a male-driven sport, is now enjoyed by a variety of people across the board. Womens' riding has developed into a hardworking, inspirational group of girls who are constantly progressing at an alarming rate. I have been inspired by this progress. It has pushed me further than I ever thought possible, both through my riding and my art. Every day I am driven to accomplish more with every brush and pedal stroke. - Micayla Gatto
