| Team Profile |
When we first started using the name in 2001, \"Tree Huggers\" described our team\'s single track biking technique. Our biking has improved over the years, but we\'re still very fond of trees.
The Tree Huggers are a group of friends, including a married couple - weekend warriors who share a sense of humour and an amazing natural talent for purchasing outdoor gear. When asked about our athletic prowess, we tend to change the subject. You\'ll recognize us on the trail when you see Richard\'s recumbent mountain bike - one of the few in existence in the world.
We finished our first adventure race six years ago and have been hooked ever since. More than 50 races later, we\'re still excited to be here. |
