What is cycling? It is the sport or activity of riding a bicycle, but how you do it changes from rider to rider. There are many factors that help make up each cyclist's DNA from the bike they ride to the terrain they prefer or the challenges that they want to conquer. The beauty of cycling is that it is not a one size fits all, but it fits any style and flavor. Join me, Elijah Townsend, as I interview individuals from all realms of the cycling world to learn about the characteristics that make up their DNA. Ride bikes, share stories!

Atlanta Courier Collective - Lawson 'Frogi' Pruett
Thank you for tuning into another episode of The What Is Cycling Podcast! On today's episode, we have Lawson 'Frogi' Pruett, who is a courier in Atlanta, Georgia. It was a really cool conversation because we pulled back the layers on a different level of the cycling world. Most people don't really think about couriers but they are the driving factor in mess culture and fixie racing. We discuss the business, biking with large packages, and having guns pulled on you. Fasten your seat belts!

Up Here, We Help When We Can (Part Two) - Mike Shisler
Thank you for checking out part two of episode fifteen featuring Mike Shisler! Mike reached out to me because he is also an author and wanted me to read his book about his bikepacking trip from Alaska to San Diego. I couldn't turn down the opportunity because a book with art, cycling adventure, and facts about the places he traveled is a no-brainer. Listen as we discuss van life, more bear encounters, and days with no night. Make sure to check out his book, Drawn There: The Art of Bikepacking in the link below.

Defeating Cancer And A Heart With Wires - Mike Cohen
On today's episode of The What Is Cycling Podcast, we have a very special guest, Mike Cohen. Mike has a very powerful and inspiring story that will move you and encourage you. At a young age, Mike was diagnosed with cancer which disrupted all of his plans at the time. After Mike defeated cancer, he had a blood clot in his heart which caused him to have a device that was hooked up to him and would ultimately cause him to get on the heart transplant list. On the day that he found out he was receiving a heart, he had to go under the procedure for a heart transplant. Mike, who is a cyclist and loves all things cycling, wanted to combine his love of cycling with his new heart and rode across the country to pay his respects to his donor and meet the donor's family. Listen to episode 14 to learn what it is like to battle and win against cancer, receive a new heart, and how to give back to the cycling community.
