Kera Linn

Kera Linn, the late-blooming mountain biking dynamo, proves it's never too late to pedal to the top. From soccer to ski and finally to the dirt tracks, her journey is a wild ride of grit and podium finishes. With Cannondale, she found her match in speed and spirit, turning Utah's mountains into her personal proving grounds. Kera's not just riding bikes; she's rewriting the rules of the game, showing that with enough drive, any mountain is conquerable.

What is the one thing people don’t know about you that you would like to share?
My great grandpa was a successful open cockpit racing pilot back in the 1920/30s. He was helping develop airplane engines/technologies and competing at the National Air Races which had over 300,000 people in attendance. Before the first ever races, he was a barnstormer entertaining crowds with stunts and traveling around the country crashing planes. I like to think I got the love of racing and a thrill-seeking lifestyle from him!

“I’m not sure if I am capable of trying a sport and not being competitive with it. To me, it’s most fun when I push my skills and see how far I can go.”
