Ever wondered how a hot dog at Costco fits into an elite athlete's training regimen?

Through her use of social media, she encourages everyone to romanticize their own lives, pushing back against the often rigid expectations of the cycling community.From the transformative power of cycling on mental health and personal growth to the vibrant and diverse cycling community in Vancouver, this episode is rich with stories and insights. I explore the balance between documenting and enjoying the ride, the challenges and rewards of capturing memories, and the profound impact of community connections fostered through platforms like Strava. Whether you're interested in the empowering stories of women in cycling, the nuances of virtual racing, or the joys of community engagement, this episode is packed with laughter, heartfelt moments, and practical advice for every cycling enthusiast.Reach out and get in contact with me here.Subscribe, share with a riding friend, and leave a review to help more listeners find the show.
