Sugar Beet’s Cycling’s Tenea Jones joins us in the YGR studios overlooking downtown Fort Collins today (none of that is true) as our 10 Tracks DJ of the week. Originally from Laramie, Tenea is a teacher with the Poudre School District. She and her family have been in Fort Collins for 9 years.

When do you listen to these?

I mostly listen to music when I’m riding the trainer, stretching, working out, or having the occasional dance party in our basement at home. If I’m driving to a trailhead I love to crank up the volume to set the tone for the ride to come.

Favorite bike?

“My Yeti Beti SB100 has totally changed my MTB rides. My SB 100 feeds to my strengths and picks up the slack where my skills are still improving.

I also just purchased a Trek Checkpoint SL 5. Not only does it look cool but it also has some pretty neat features for a gravel bike. “

Favorite ride?

“One of my favorite local rides is the 4SOH course. It’s a good way to get a little taste of what Fort Collins has to offer.

We did Monarch Crest Trail for the first time this year and just WOW!

Sedona, AZ is one of our new favorite places to ride, 10/10 recommend it.

Preferred style of riding?

My true cycling love is and most likely will always be XC MTB. I’m also getting more into gravel riding and am finding it a great way to get out on the bike even when trails are closed.

Bike Sports

What to say about Whitney and Zack Allison with the Bike Sports, Gravel Graceland and FoCo Fondo brands.... The professional gravel racers have been working hard to build their empire while simultaneously lifting the entire Northern Colorado Cycling scene. Their efforts to make cycling and especially gravel riding accessible and welcoming to everyone should be embraced and replicated at events across the country. I'm continually in awe of their positive energy and entrepreneurial spirit.…
