Welcome to this latest episode of The Nick Fong PODCAST. Today, Nick joins his special guest Lorena Dromundo where she shares her journey of how she realized her love for sports. As you’ll see, she has represented Mexico competing in various international events. Being retired, she is now quite determined to give back to the community through her initiative called Once Once, which means “eleven eleven” in English. This initiative targets many opportunities for people in Cabo to engage in sports and other physical activities.
This is an inspiring and uplifting conversation about the power of sports to bring people together and make a positive impact in the world.
Lorena believes that through sports, people can build a stronger, more connected community. So during the podcast, Lorena opens up about the challenges she faced in starting Once Once, including fundraising and finding the right partners to make the project a success.
Now, read on to discover even more about Lorena and her adventure with Once Once in Cabo.
How Lorena Dromundo started competing
When Lorena was only 11 years of age, she started competing on horses. As she explains, she both jumped horses and raced horses. Obviously, she’s naturally quite competitive. After horses, she realized how much she loved bikes. So very quickly, she discovered downhill mountain biking and the rest was history.
Many crashes and injuries are the name of the game
Having never broken a bone, Lorena did crash once and split her liver in two. The look on Nick’s face is priceless. Then, she tells Nick that getting knocked un-conscience is almost a weekly event. At the speeds they cruise down the mountains, along bumpy paths, wipe-outs must be very rough indeed. Apparently, the more you crash, the better you get – makes sense.
Meet Lorena Dromundo
Lorena Dromundo tells Nick that she’s been riding bikes competitively her entire life. And previously, she was a professional downhill mountain bike rider. She had become one of the top 15 mountain bikers in the world. Although she’s from Mexico City, she now lives in San Jose del Cabo, a peaceful town in Los Cabos. During the video, she reveals how much she loves living in Baja Sur.
Cabo mountain biking in Baja Sur

In fact, Cabo along with other places in Baja Sur are world-class destinations for mountain biking.
