About the coach: angela olson (who prefers a lowercase styling of her name) joins the League as an Organizational Coach, a special category of Coach representing one of our state and local partners. Organizational Coaches are experienced LCIs, typically chosen from a bike advocacy organization’s staff to be the face of their cycling education efforts.
angela has been an educator for over 20 years, teaching at various nonprofits in Minneapolis, New York, and Chicago. When working as a mechanic or service writer, she most loved teaching folks new things about their bicycle—ways to maintain their machine, solve problems, and get around by their own power. She's worked with brand new riders and experienced racers alike, and feels passionately that everybody deserves to get around safely and confidently. Today, angela serves as the Deputy Director at the Bicycle Alliance of Minnesota, where she supports our educational and advocacy efforts statewide.
