Nina Machnowski

Pedal Montclair: What do you ride?

Nina: I currently ride the Pivot Mach 4 SL for marathon mountain biking and the Pivot Vault for collegiate races!

Pedal Montclair: Favorite places to ride? Why?

Nina: Some of my favorite parks include Mahlon Dickerson Reservation and Allamuchy North.

Pedal Montclair: Where would you go on your ultimate biking trip?

Nina: My ultimate biking trip would be to South Africa because I would love to ride on the same trails that are in the Cape Epic!

Pedal Montclair: Advice to any new comers?

Nina: The cycling community is so awesome! Don't hold back from joining local group rides or exploring new trails. A tip of mine would be to always bring EXTA NUTRITION on rides - even if you think you're just planning on going for a "quick spin." Running out of fuel is not fun!

Pedal Montclair: Who's your favorite rider?

Nina: My favorite riders would have to be Chloe Woodruff, Rose Grant, Sofia Gomez Villafane, and Keegan Swenson - AKA the Stan's/Pivot Pro Cycling Team!
