The Wheel Community Podcast

ep 9 - Jessica Conley

Episode 9 of ‘The Wheel Community’ podcast is out today! This week’s episode covers my talk with Jessica Conley, bikepacker and sprint chaser. We cover how she got inspired to try cycling after reading a book about riding the Blue Ridge Parkway (then doing it solo as a novice), showing up to some of her first group road rides still prepped for touring (bags and all), and when she decided to try structured training at Sweet Spot Cycling Studio. And we made a short preview video of our chat, for anyone that might want to see what it looks like behind the audio (google search for - ‘TWC ep 9 Jessica Conley - preview video’ or use the link to youtube below, ~6 minute video).
