Our board
Janie Curtis
Janie moved to Cody in 2007 to pursue an outdoor lifestyle in ranching and exploring the surrounding areas on foot. In 2017, Janie launched her own events business; organizing and promoting running, biking, and other events in and around Cody while also organizing free weekly runs for the Cody Running Crew. In 2021, Janie became one of the founding members of That Other Project (TOP), a nonprofit with a mission geared towards pedestrian access and safety in Cody. TOP works closely with the City of Cody, Park County, WYDOT, and the community on various projects to directly benefit the residents of Cody and beyond. TOP's current priority is completing a new Active Transportation Master Plan for the City of Cody after hiring HDR and working closely with the City and community to build the comprehensive, actionable plan. Janie lives in the hills outside of Cody with her husband and dog.
Meghan Kent
Born and raised in Laramie, Meghan cut her teeth biking on the two-track roads that have since evolved into the Schoolyard Trail system. Although the memory of biking to school with her brother still fills her with dread (2.5 miles, and uphill both ways!), she is now grateful to have grown up with great access to both recreational trails and safe active transportation routes. She is excited to help Wyoming Pathways bring this access to more children and adults across the state.
As a burgeoning endurance junkie, Meghan enjoys biking, running and skiing. She just completed her "Big Year", which included the 90k Vasaloppet ski race, 52k Big Horn trail run, and 105k Laramie Epic mountain bike race. She looks forward to smaller years from now on and hopes to someday tackle the Tour de Wyoming. In addition to her personal interests, Meghan is celebrating a decade of coaching youth running and skiing. She currently volunteers as a ski coach for the Sheridan Junior High School. She also serves on the board for Black Mountain Nordic, and is a past board member for Common Outdoor Ground.
Meghan pays her bills as the Conservation Director for the Sheridan Community Land Trust. She works with the Sheridan County community to protect open space, agricultural lands, creeks and rivers, and wildlife habitat. She bikes to work happily more days than not.
John Gallagher
John Gallagher has resided in the little-known mountain bike mecca of Cody, Wyoming for the last twenty years. His travels to more popular biking destinations have made him realize how good the riding is in his own backyard.
John is the Information Technology Manager at the Buffalo Bill Center of the West.
A desire to protect and expand local biking opportunities has led to a second, non-paying, career in bicycle advocacy. John currently serves on the Board of Park County Pedalers in Cody.
John has two children and a dog that enjoys biking adventures as much as John does.
“The more people we have on bikes, the fewer problems society has,” John claims.
Jerimiah Rieman
A Wyoming native, Jerimiah Rieman serves as Executive Director of the Wyoming County Commissioner Association, representing the state’s county commissioners before the Wyoming State Legislature, working collaboratively with the Wyoming governor’s office and other state agencies on local government issues, and providing outreach and guidance to county leaders.
Rieman most recently finished an eight-year stint in the office of former Governor Matt Mead, holding the position of Director of Economic Diversification, Natural Resource Policy Director, Natural Resource Policy Advisor, and State Planning Coordinator. He is currently pursuing a Master of Legal Studies.
Jerimiah has always found enjoyment on a bike. Although a family of little means, his parents fostered his love of riding, starting with a “Big Wheel” tricycle and later a bicycle local missionaries built from mismatched pieces and parts – narrow mountain bike handlebars, oversized road bike frame. His passion for mountain biking started while in college at Colorado State University where he earned a Bachelor’s in Natural Resource, Recreation and Tourism.
At CSU he met his wife Kristen, a Louisiana native, and by the grace of God she has fueled his two-wheeled lust. Their identical twin boys Boden and Potter, started riding before learning to walk. Together they have mountain biked throughout Wyoming, the western United States and Canada. When not riding, the family can be found in Wyoming’s great outdoors camping, fishing and skiing.

Mitch Prissel
Mitch is a native of South Dakota and was fortunate to be raised in a family with strong values for the great outdoors, from bird hunting to biking and everything in between. That DNA carried him through college in Minnesota, where he helped to develop the first snowboard and mountain bike clubs. This passion and a '76 Lincoln with suicide doors led him West to the Mountains of the Tetons, where he and his family reside today. He has spent the last 25 years chasing this passion through the mountains and rivers of the surrounding region. Mitch has been involved and deeply rooted in the retail world of outdoor business since college. Guiding the world-famous and not-so-famous trout rivers (favorites) of the greater 3 State Yellowstone area and owning, managing, and consulting for several great outdoor businesses. These days, the adventure continues with hands in the dirt, creating events, and volunteering time for trails. Many groups locally here in the Tetons, along with many groups across Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming, keep the rides alive. Mitch is also on the Eastern Idaho Trails Advisory Committee board for Idaho State Parks and Recreation.
