Who are you, and what do you do? Tell us a bit about yourself.

My name is Arielle Coy, I'm a medical doctor and road-racer for LA Sweat Racing Team

What is your favourite place to train, and what makes it special for you?

Colorado, USA -- beautiful views, plenty of climbing, and great cycling community to ride with

What is your favourite Santini item, and why?

Other than my LA Sweat Racing jersey, my favorite Santini item is the RTR long sleeve jersey. Can wear alone or with layers on top. I love the color selection.

What Santini piece or accessory do you consider essential for winter?

Either the alpha baselayer or the adapt glove. I won't leave my house without either of these two items for cold, winter riding.

What Santini piece or accessory do you consider essential for summer?

I don't own this yet-- but I'm really curious and interested to try the Pelle no-zip jersey. It looks extremely light weight, fitted and sleek.
