Lorene Jackson is a native Californian who's happiest outdoors. Graduate school in environmental health at UC Berkeley brought her to the Bay Area and she never left. Soon, the open spaces of Marin became the playground for raising her three sons. Lorene began mountain biking as a mother hen for the neighborhood boys. She would take them further into the hills than they could go alone. It wasn't long before she found herself racing cross country, if only to make sure the boys made it to the finish line safely. Gradually moving up the ranks herself, she has won the expert division of her age group at the NORBA National races. More recently, she can be found racing mountain bike triathlons. This trail guide has been an excuse to lift her head up from the training rides, explore new trails, and smell the wildflowers.
