A Story of Adventure, Partnership, and Building a Dream
Some love stories begin with a fateful glance, a first date, or a shared passion for the outdoors. For mountain biking legends Mark Sevenoff and Ashley Korenblat, their love story was written on singletrack, winding through towering forests, over desert slickrock, and across decades of building a life together on two wheels.

As co-owners of Western Spirit Cycling Adventures, the couple has spent over two decades guiding riders through the most breathtaking landscapes in North America. Their journey together is one of adventure, resilience, and a shared passion—not just for cycling, but for creating a thriving business, fostering a community, and preserving the lands they love.
For this special Valentine’s Day edition, we sat down with Mark and Ashley to talk about how mountain biking brought them together, the challenges and joys of working side by side, and what advice they have for other couples hoping to build their own cycling dream.
