Meet the Subaru/IMBA Trail Care Crews
Steve & Morgan Lommele
One glance at Steve and Morgan Lommele's passports will reveal that they've seen more places than most people do in a lifetime. On one hand, Steve is fluent in Spanish, with experience living in Spain and worldwide travel. Morgan one-ups her husband with Belgian-American dual citizenship and fluency in French and German. They have extensive experience with public speaking, facilitation, collaborative processes, communications and, of course, mountain biking! In 2010, Morgan and Steve left behind jobs as facilitator/mediator for an environmental consulting firm and communications specialist for the National Renewable Energy Lab (respectively) to hit the road in a Subaru. As an added bonus, they both hold Masters degrees in Environmental Policy and Management and have travelled to 49 of the nation's 50 states, as well as every world continent (minus Antarctica).

Jake Carsten & Jenny Abraham
Jake has a deep background in training, small business ownership, financial services, and business management consulting for a Fortune 500 corporation, but his true love goes back to his boyhood days on a BMX bike. Between the ages of 12 and 19, Jake was an avid BMXer, spending his days racing, dirt jumping and freestyling. Jake and his freestyle team built their own quarterpipes and performed at shows around the south Texas area. He took up trail riding much later in life at the age of 39, and love of the bike returned instantly.
Jenny has a varied background in counseling, social services, project management, training, and small business ownership. Jenny holds a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology, but has chosen to pursue the therapy of trails over the consulting couch. Her love of mountain biking and educating led her to the Trail Care Crew.
Both Jake and Jenny are also certified level two instructors through IMIC (International Mountainbike Instructor Certification). They love educating and empowering mountain bikers, whether it’s about sustainable (and fun) trailbuilding, advocacy, or improving their riding.
