Send us Fan Mail A champion athlete with a clear sense of purpose shouldn’t become a headline, but Moriah “Mo” Wilson did and the details are as heartbreaking as they are infuriating. We start where Mo wanted the story to start: with the legacy. Her journal captures a young woman asking rare, grown-up questions about values, meaning, and the mark she wants to leave, and we talk about how her parents turn that mission into a foundation designed to get more young people biking, moving, and feeling supported by their community. From there, we trace Mo’s path from Vermont to the elite world of gravel cycling. She’s chasing Olympic skiing until two ACL tears force a reset, and that detour becomes the doorway to off-road racing, resilience, and a rise that makes her one of the most successful gravel cyclists in America. Her ambition isn’t just about winning, either. It’s about being someone other people can look up to, which makes what happens next feel even more senseless. On May 11, 2022, Mo is in Austin, Texas, meets up with pro cyclist Colin Strickland, and returns to a friend’s apartment. Kaitlyn Armstrong’s jealousy and escalating behavior collide with opportunity and access, leading to Mo’s murder. We walk through the investigation that follows: surveillance footage, car GPS loops near the crime scene, the flight out of the country, the Costa Rica arrest, and the courtroom proof that ends with a 90-year sentence. We also get honest about accountability, manipulation, and why a messy love triangle can turn dangerous fast. If you care about true crime stories with real-world lessons, the cycling community, and the warning signs people ignore until it’s too late, listen now, then subscribe, share the episode, and leave a review so more people can find it.
