In 2018, just two months after winning the world championship, she survived a life-threatening car accident that left her in a wheelchair wondering if she'd ever ride again.

Lisa Congdon is one of my favorite people to follow online. Her colorful art, love for bikes, and bravery in speaking up for causes she believes in are all deeply inspiring to me. At 58, Lisa is a shining example of what's possible in the second half of our lives. She started riding bikes consistently in her 40s and didn't start racing until her 50s.  In this podcast episode, we discuss what drew Lisa to endurance racing, how working with a coach transformed her relationship with cycling, and why she believes older women are uniquely suited for long-distance events. We also discuss why Lisa chose to show up as her whole self online—art, cycling, activism, and all—and how speaking out about her values has actually grown both her following and her opportunities, not diminished them. ⭐ Sponsored by Cycle Limited.   Buy and sell used bikes! 👉 https://cyclelimited.com/ Connect With Lisa 👉 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisacongdon 👉 Substack: https://substack.com/@lisacongdon 👉 Website:https://lisacongdon.com/ ❤️ Join Kristen & The Femme Cyclist Community ➡︎ Website: https://femmecyclist.com ➡︎ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/femmecyclist ➡︎  Instagram:  https://instagram.com/femme_cyclist   ➡︎   Facebook: https://facebook.com/femmecyclist   Support the show 👉Instagram: @femme_cyclist 👉Website: https://femmecyclist.com

Sarah Sturm is one of the most recognized and beloved names in gravel racing. She's a powerhouse on the bike and a huge personality off of it. In this interview, I was able to get a behind-the-scenes look at her life as a professional athlete. We talk about how she trains, what she eats, and why she tracks her menstrual cycle.

I first interviewed Lindsey Richter five years ago and that podcast episode became one of the most popular that I've ever done. Much like anyone who has ever been to one of Lindey's Ladies All Ride skills camps, listeners of that episode immediately fell in love with her. So obviously, I was super excited to have Lindsey back on the podcast a second time. Lindsey is now 50 and stronger and wiser than ever. She just returned from leading an all-women train down A-Line at Crankworx Whistler, and she continues to help other women develop the same confident, bad-ass energy that she embodies. In this interview, we talk about mountain biking as we get older, but this episode is also for anyone who's ever ridden a mountain bike or would like to get on a mountain bike. Lindsey shares her advice for women who are brand new to the sport, how to overcome mental hurdles, why it's so important to build community, and much more!

Have you ever thought about racing?  Isabella Bertold is happy to share what she wishes she had known when she first started out.  Isabella is a former professional sailor turned pro cyclist who is a wealth of wisdom and knowledge.  From her current home in Spain, her hub for training and racing on the European circuit, Isabella chatted with me about all things racing and bicycles.

Feeling tired, irritable, and unmotivated to ride?  You might be overtrained!   Yes, it can happen even to those of us who aren't elite athletes.  Ramping up training too quickly, life stress, inadequate rest and recovery, and aging can all help contribute.   In this episode, I share signs that you might be overtraining, what to do about it, and how to prevent it. ⭐ 20% Off At Jelenew.com with coupon code KB20 👉 https://www.jelenew.com/ 🔥 FREE Printable Training Journal  👉 https://bp-cole-llc.kit.com/cb9be229ab 💪 Train With Me! 👉 https://www.femmecyclist.com/train-with-me/ ❤️ Join Kristen & The Femme Cyclist Community ➡︎ Website: https://femmecyclist.com ➡︎ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/femmecyclist ➡︎  Instagram:  https://instagram.com/femme_cyclist   ➡︎   Facebook: https://facebook.com/femmecyclist   Support the show 👉Instagram: @femme_cyclist 👉Website: https://femmecyclist.com

Nicole is the co-founder of Boyd Cycling, the face behind Southeast Gravel, and a former professional cyclist.

Something you hear very little about in the mainstream cycling media is motherhood.  And yet, pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, and caring for little humans all have a profound impact on our bodies and our relationship with the bike. In this re-released podcast interview with Ali Frendin, we discuss pelvic floor health, getting back on the bike after childbirth, and the psychological impact of motherhood. 🔥 Train with Kristen! 👉https://www.femmecyclist.com/train-with-me/ ❤️ Join Kristen & The Femme Cyclist Community ➡︎ Website: https://femmecyclist.com ➡︎ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/femmecyclist ➡︎  Instagram:  https://instagram.com/femme_cyclist   ➡︎   Facebook: https://facebook.com/femmecyclist   ❤️ Connect With Ali/MTB Mamas ➡︎ Website: MtbMamas.com ➡︎ @mtbmamas Support the show 👉Instagram: @femme_cyclist 👉Website: https://femmecyclist.com

This episode is a re-release of one of the very few interviews I ever did with Georgenna Terry.  It may not be the most polished or confident interview I’ve ever done since I had no experience at the time, BUT it provides so many golden nuggets of wisdom so I wanted to reshare it.  If you don’t know who Georgenna Terry is, she was the founder of Terry Bicycles, a name you probably recognize. She has since moved on and created another company, Georgenna Terry, building custom hand-built steel bicycles.  In this episode, we discuss why women can benefit from bicycles designed just for us.   🔥 Shop Femme Cyclist Training Plans 👉 https://shop.femmecyclist.com/product-category/training-plans/ ⭐ 20% Off At Terry Cycles 👉 https://terrycycling.com/discount/CYCLIST ❤️ Join Kristen & The Femme Cyclist Community ➡︎ Website: https://femmecyclist.com ➡︎ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/femmecyclist ➡︎  Instagram:  https://instagram.com/femme_cyclist   ➡︎   Facebook: https://facebook.com/femmecyclist   💜 Connect With Georgena 👉 Instagram: @georgenaterry 👉 Website: https://georgenaterry.com/ Support the show 👉Instagram: @femme_cyclist 👉Website: https://femmecyclist.com

A question I frequently hear from many of my female coaching clients is, "What supplements do you take?"  This is one I hesitate to answer because supplements are very individualized. Several of the supplements I take are based on bloodwork identifying things I'm deficient in.  That said, there are several supplements that *most* female cyclists can benefit from taking, and there are a few others that *many* other folks may be deficient in.  🔥 50% off training plans with coupon code PODCAST50. 👉 https://shop.femmecyclist.com/product-category/training-plans/ ⭐ Our favorite electrolytes👉 https://www.femmecyclist.com/hydration-drink-mixes-for-cycling/ Full Show Notes: https://www.femmecyclist.com/supplements-cyclists/ ❤️ Join Kristen & The Femme Cyclist Community ➡︎ Website: https://femmecyclist.com ➡︎ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/femmecyclist ➡︎  Instagram:  https://instagram.com/femme_cyclist   ➡︎   Facebook: https://facebook.com/femmecyclist   Support the show 👉Instagram: @femme_cyclist 👉Website: https://femmecyclist.com

It always makes me sad 😢 when I hear folks tell me that they don’t have friends to ride with or are struggling to find a bike community to be a part of. And I relate—I’ve moved cities multiple times in my adult life, and have had to start over finding bike friends. 👯‍♀️ The good news is that female cyclists are the kindest, most welcoming women I’ve ever met. Here’s how I’ve gone about connecting with them. ⭐ 15% Off At Pearl Izumi with code FEMME15👉 https://alnk.to/cwU9NfF Resources Mentioned In This Episode: 👉 Women's Group Ride & Club Directory: https://www.femmecyclist.com/womens-cycling-clubs-and-rides/ 👉 Women's Mountain Bike Events: https://www.femmecyclist.com/womens-mountain-bike-clinics-camps/ 👉 Women's Road & Gravel Events: https://www.femmecyclist.com/womens-only-cycling-events/ ❤️ Join Kristen & The Femme Cyclist Community ➡︎ Website: https://femmecyclist.com ➡︎ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/femmecyclist ➡︎  Instagram:  https://instagram.com/femme_cyclist   ➡︎   Facebook: https://facebook.com/femmecyclist   Support the show 👉Instagram: @femme_cyclist 👉Website: https://femmecyclist.com

Have you ever been out on the trail or road and encountered a mechanical issue that left you stranded and afraid to ride longer distances on your own? Or maybe you've been putting off taking care of your bike because you're not sure what you should be doing?  In either case, you're not alone. Many cyclists, especially women, haven't been given the encouragement or resources to learn these crucial skills. That's why I'm thrilled to welcome Casey Wytaske to the show. Casey is a professional bike mechanic and certified mountain bike coach who has dedicated her career to empowering women in cycling.  After discovering her passion for bike mechanics while volunteering at a local non-profit bike shop in 2013, Casey went on to become certified at the United Bicycle Institute and now works as a demo technician for Liv Cycling. In today's episode, we'll discuss why there are so few female bike mechanics, essential maintenance skills every cyclist should know, and what tools you should have in your home toolkit. Casey will also share insights about the Girls Gone Gravel mechanic camps she leads and offer practical tips for getting your bike ready for riding season.  If you've ever hoped to become better at bike maintenace, this is an episode you don't want to miss.  🔥 50% off training plans with coupon code PODCAST50. 👉 https://shop.femmecyclist.com/product-category/training-plans/ ⭐ 20% Off At Terry Cycles 👉 https://terrycycling.com/discount/CYCLIST Full Show Notes: https://femmecyclist.com/casey-wytaske-interview ❤️ Join Kristen & The Femme Cyclist Community ➡︎ Website: https://femmecyclist.com ➡︎ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/femmecyclist ➡︎  Instagram:  https://instagram.com/femme_cyclist   ➡︎   Facebook: https://facebook.com/femmecyclist   💜 Connect With Casey 👉 Instagram: @o_acacia 👉 Girls Gone Gravel Mechanic School: https://www.girlsgonegravel.com/camp  Support the show 👉Instagram: @femme_cyclist 👉Website: https://femmecyclist.com
