    EP3: Jessica Strange on Women, Zwift and Starting Again

    Before Zwift, before racing, and before cycling media, Jessica was simply trying mountain biking with no gear, no idea and plenty of crashes along the way. What started as curiosity became a career, a community, and a way to help more women feel seen, supported and less intimidated in cycling.In this episode, we talk about Jessica’s move from government work into mountain biking, building women’s cycling spaces, creating honest content, learning in public, and discovering Zwift through postpartum recovery. We also dive into the nerves of entering her first Zwift race, the pressure women creators can face around credibility, appearance and visibility, and why there is still so much opportunity for more women to tell their stories in virtual cycling.Jessica’s message is simple: stop waiting until you feel ready. Start badly, learn openly, laugh at the mistakes, and try the thing anyway.

    EP2: What Eric Schlange Really Thinks About Zwift's Future

We also talk about racing, the Rouvy acquisition, MyWhoosh, AI summaries affecting creators, Zwift Community Live in Mallorca, and why virtual cycling has become much more than just riding indoors.
