Melissa is the first rider of this weekend's featured dynamic duo, the Clark sisters. Coming back for her second season of racing, she's looking to build on the experience and sucesses she had in 2007. Last season she jumped into both the Cherry Creek time trial series and Winter Park, doing a great job riding an old Trek hardtail for most of the year. For 2008 she'll be piloting her sweet new Giant Anthem full suspension machine and is hoping to add Winter Park to her list of podium accomplishments!
In addition to racing, she's been tackling both Moab and Fruita and making great strides in her technical abilities. After bombing Porcupine Rim on the hardtail behind Scott, Erik and Craig, Melissa realized she could ride anything. She also has a secret weapon in her corner with her number one fan and daughter, Ayshia, plus our ringleader, Scott, cheering her on.
Now let's hear what the elder Clark has to say herself...
