Michael Copenhaver runs the Bell Lap Productions show. He studied economics before moving to Whidbey Island and opening Bayview Bicycles. He races cyclocross, cross country mountain bike, enduro, and track. Michael always has really cool bikes.
Ella Dorband is the race director for WSMTB. She races cyclocross, cross country mountain bike, and sometimes enduro and track. She is currently member at-large on EMBA’s Cascades to Sound Council. Previously she was a Co-captain of Breakfast Racing Team, ride leader with Rapha Seattle, and a Board Member at The Bikery. She has probably tried to give you a mimosa handup at some point.
