  1. The Low Down on Mid South with Meg Fisher (Episode 208)

    22 HR AGO

    The Low Down on Mid South with Meg Fisher (Episode 208)

    As you may know, The Mid South Gravel was meant to take place last weekend in Stillwater, Oklahoma. However, the event had to be cancelled at the last minute due to a devastating wildfire in the area. Past guest Meg Fisher joins Kathryn this week, freshly home from Stillwater, to talk through the weekend’s events. Though Stillwater was spared of any major damage, the neighboring town of Guthrie was hit particularly hard by the fires, and many people there lost everything. Despite the devastation, the gravel community rose to come together on Saturday to show their support for Still water and Guthrie, and demonstrate what is really important about bike racing; people showing up for each other when they need it most.

    Focus is Fun with Stella Hobbs (Episode 206)

    This week on the show Kathryn and Kristi are joined by Life Time Grand Prix rookie Stella Hobbs, from Whitefish, MT. Stella grew up competing in nordic ski racing, and after a successful collegiate career she hung up her skis, moved back to Whitefish, and within a couple of years was the proud co-owner of Great Northern Cycle & Ski. She participated in the weekly group road rides, and started mountain biking with her husband. Then in 2020 the weekly shop ride went from pavement to gravel, thanks to the influence of Jess Cera. Although it took Stella a little while to come around to the idea of gravel riding, once she got started she never looked back. Her endurance sport background gave her a leg up in hanging on to those speedy shop rides, and in 2023 she made the jump to gravel racing, pushing herself to take on bigger and bigger races. Stella was inspired by the women of the Grand Prix, and worked hard to put herself in a position to be selected for the 2025 season. After some time off of serious training after her ski career she says she is enjoying the process of focussing on training again, and is looking forward to taking on all of the Grand Prix events this year.

    Cycling to Creative Spaces with Lisa Congdon (Episode 204)

    This week we welcome artist and cyclist Lisa Congdon. After a handful of charity bike rides, Lisa was drawn into cycling when she moved to Portland as a way to make friends in a new city. With a few years of road riding under her belt, Lisa was drawn into gravel cycling in 2020 and hasn’t looked back. This elementary school teacher-turned artist, activist and cyclist has found a way to beautifully weave together her passions in a meaningful way by creating art that represents the things she is passionate about. Lisa describes how cycling allows her to let her mind wander into the creative spaces that help to get her creativity flowing for her artistic projects, and why cycling is so helpful for her creative practice. Not only does Lisa create beautiful art, she uses her work as a vehicle for social change, and has woven that into the work that she has done in the cycling space.
