He spent time trekking in both the Everest and Annapurna Regions and MTBing in the Kathmandu Valley. MTBing is in its infancy in Nepal, but those that do ride are very passionate.  Margell continues to crush the CX circuitMargell continues to show us why she’s such a valuable coach, crushing the local CX season while continuing to provide all our athletes with immeasurable support!
