Rider Profile: Jaimie Didier

 

 

 

 

 

 

If there is one thing you need to know about Jaimie, she always has a smile on her face!  She was born and raised in Rapid City, South Dakota and moved to Hood River 4 1/2 years ago after she graduated from college.  She spends her days working as a Dental Hygienist and her spare time biking, skiing, kiting and taking advantage of the close proximity to abundant recreational activities available in the Pacific Northwest.  This will be her second season racing for the Dirty Harlots.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Jaimie had a successful first season taking 2nd Place in the Overall 34 & Under Category for Sport Women in the Oregon Enduro Series.  For the upcoming season she will be riding a Kona Process 134 DL and is planning on racing the Oregon Enduro Series, Bend, Hood River, and Mount Bachelor races, the Sturdy Dirty All Women’s Enduro, the Cascadia Dirt Cup Dry Hill Enduro and the Helenduro in Montana.

A fun fact about Jaimie: On the off chance you don’t run into her ripping the local Hood River Trails on the weekend or kiting on the river, she can be found on mountaintops making music on her Norweigian Hardanger Fiddle…
