Kaitlin Emig (owner)Kaitlin took over ownership in 2022 as the previous owner's first hired rider. She's ridden 6 season on the pedicab and loves to get paid to work out. She believes her yellow cab is cheerful like a sunflower but fierce like a lion as it peddles fast through the mountains.
Growing up in the rolling hills of Kansas, Kaitlin enjoyed taking her refurbished road bike out to the lake for an afternoon swim on the hot summer days. Now she is a mountain bike coach with Vail Mountain Bike Camps, preschool teacher, and writer for Jaunt Media Collective. She has a love for travel and an adventurous spirt. She's lived abroad in 6 countries and now glad to call Vail her home. She enjoys all kinds of outdoor recreation during her free time, including skiing, snowboarding, ski touring, mountain biking, paddle boarding, climbing, acro yoga, and slacklining. www.mywildwomandiary.com/ |
