Personal Notes:

Hi I am Ally Stacher, this is my first year with Team Kenda and I am fired up about this year's road season. I am looking forward to racing with an NRC team and traveling to races with a new group of girls.

I came from an athletic background growing up running, playing basketball, softball, volleyball and wrestling. I have always been attracted to sports that are demanding physically and mentally.

In my years of cycling I have grown to love stage racing and look forward to do as many NRC stage races as possible.
