Meet the Team

Gosh Darn is a labor of love, the small team below has been making the magic happen since the very first Gosh Darn. Give them all a high-five, hug, or thank you when you see them!

Event Director

Safety Tregelles (they/she)

Safety was once called “a friend of bicycles,” and they really liked that. They’ve been directing Gosh Darn since 2018, but when they aren’t planning next year’s event you can find them zipping down backroads and crushing
Hickman Co. gravel.

Co-Founder

Dave Thienel (he/him)

Dave is 50% of the reason why we got here. He co-founded the event because he wanted something hard and challenging but lacked the B.S. of the race scene. You can find Dave running, hiking, and practicing mindfulness when he’s not on his bike.

Volunteer Director

Haley Lambing (she/her)

Haley is easily one of the most recognizable faces of Gosh Darn, and one of the reasons why the show runs so smoothly. When she’s not at Gosh Darn you can find her doodling, pounding La Croix, and hanging out with her 9-year-old dog, Rock.
