Jaycie Sinclair

Usa Bmx 2016 National Number One Girl Cruiser

- 

Now racing for AllTow Wrecking Crew, with co-factory support from Yess Bicycles, Texas’ Jaycie Sinclair proudly showed us her newly built Yess cruiser. Like all of the AllTow team bikes, it has the identical orange-faded-to-white color scheme. But only on hers does the top tube read: National No.1 Girl Cruiser.

JAYCIE: “I really like the Yess bikes. They were really easy to get used to, and I really love the paint job. It’s so different. The bright colors are different than everybody else.

Jaycie has been a great addition to the NY-based team in the familiar orange, white and blue.

JAYCIE: “The team is fun. They were welcoming to me. We go on a lot of bike rides together. Sometimes we hit the trails.”

But it does seem odd this year seeing Jaycie without her twin sister, Haley.

JAYCIE: “She might start racing later in the year, after she finishes her gymnastics stuff. I hope she starts racing again; it’s weird without her. ”

In her chase for the Girl Cruiser title, Haley was vital in helping her sister stay in the right frame of mind.

JAYCIE: “At Grands, I was nervous! I knew we had more rider points, so all I had to do was win to take the title. I knew if I won, I won - and if I lost, I would just try again next year. Haley and Korie Gilbert were really good, helping keep me calm. Especially my sister - she’s so nice. Haley just grabbed me by the helmet and told me ‘Jaycie, you can do this! You’re the best.’ She just knows me, knows what to say.

Sitting No.3 in points, she lined up for the Grands main against ‘Skittles’ - McKenzie Gayheart, Haro’s Madelynn Desantis and five other super fast girls. By the time the gate dropped, she was in her usual, aggressive win-mode.
