Hope everyone’s spring/summer is starting off great! It’s super hot here in Florida right now, it’s weird because it was kind of chilly for a really long time, which is not normal in Saint Aug, but this last week was a scorcher! Today it was 95, but “felt like” 102 🙂 So last column ... Read more
Kurt Yaeger, Chet Cooper, Ashley Fiolek and China Press are DRLC Honorees
Usually when we hear about China, the stories focus on factories and goods, jobs shipped overseas and other news items that make the country sound uninviting. But when ABILITY Magazine’s Chet Cooper traveled to Beijing to meet some of his counterparts in publishing, he found himself forming lasting friendships. During that time, ABILITY Magazine and China ... Read more

So darn cold!
My family and I took a trip back up to Michigan for Christmas and New Years. We had a really good time but it was so darn cold! When it’s minus 12, you can’t really enjoy much. We flew into Grand Rapids, MI, and as we got closer, the pilot made an announcement: We ... Read more
Oh, the Winds
Late last summer, my mom and I planned a mother/daughter trip to Northern California to go wine tasting in Napa. But as the day to leave drew closer, we kept a close eye on the weather reports about Hurricane Irma. It came right down to the wire: The Category 5 storm wasn’t hitting on ... Read more
Fun and Hectic
My summer has been crazy, fun and hectic. I had to travel all over the US to do AFMX schools. I taught them in Texas, Illinois, Colorado and Washington. They were a lot of fun, and I got to bring my bike, so I had the chance to ride with everyone at all the ... Read more

Three Weeks in Europe
Hey everyone, I’m writing this from New York City because the legendary Carnegie Deli is my dad’s favorite restaurant ever, and it’s closing down in December after almost 80 years.

Happiest Riding!
Since I’ve done riding, racing, acting and stunt work, a few of my friends from the recent Marvel show suggested that I go after even more acting and stunt gigs. So I signed up on a number of acting sites, some of them based on my friend’s Sto advice. Isn’t it nice when ... Read more
Time to Teach
Now that the weather is warming up, it’s time to pack away the snowboard. I really wish I could do it year round like riding a dirt bike, but I guess I’ll have to be satisfied with the few short months of the white stuff. I’ve also been riding a lot more for fun ... Read more
A Wishful Adventure
I have been traveling all over the place and loving every minute of it! My classes keep me busy, and yet I managed to squeeze in time to fly home to Florida for a quick “visit.” I put visit in quotes because it really wasn’t down time; I actually had an agenda. I’m looking ... Read more
Road Trippin’
Whew, I have been super busy with my Ashley Fiolek MX School. I wasn’t sure if I wanted to teach at first, but it’s been fantastic. I also find it inspirational to work with so many different people who, like me, are excited to ride. My friend, Ryan, and I decided to load up ... Read more

Girls Just Want to Ride!
In recent months, I’ve have a fun time teaching at AFMX schools in Georgia and Florida, which has kept me flying back and forth. Then my really awesome sponsors invited me to two different women’s ride days! A huge thanks to the people at Fox for their “Babe’s Ride Out 2” event. It was ... Read more
Vegas
Vegas, Baby! I’ve had a busy couple of months bouncing around to different states, doing MX classes, and practice-riding my UTV Razor.
