  Episode #306

  Inclusive Cycling Apparel and Designing for Real Bodies with Ashley Rankin of Shredley (Episode 266)

  Sep 29, 202644 min

  Our episode this week is brought to you live from Feisty Fest. Kathryn is joined by guest host and Marley Blonsky as they sit down with Shredley founder Ashley Rankin for a candid conversation about how a mountain bike clothing brand grew from a single ride idea into a women-centered apparel company. Shredley launched in 2012 through Kickstarter, and intentionally broke away from the standard black, baggy, pink-it-and-shrink-it mountain bike aesthetic with brighter prints and more expressive design.The discussion covers Ashley’s winding path from fashion dreams to outdoor gear, plus the product decisions behind fit, fabric, sizing, and the emotional side of getting dressed to ride. Ashley shares her perspective on what it takes to build a small, nimble apparel brand, how customer feedback shapes Shredley’s designs, and why features like pockets, drop-tail bibs, and size inclusion matter so much to riders.

  Episode #305

  Collegiate cycling, Gravel Worlds and racing after tragedy with Samanth Johnson (Episode 267)

  Sep 22, 202651 min

  On this week’s episode, Kathryn and Kristi are joined by Life Time Grand Prix U23 athlete Samanth Johnson. Samanth (yes, without the “a”) is from Louisville KY, and she tells us the unique story behind her name - although she’s happy to just be called Sam too. New to the U23 Grand Prix this year, Sam cut her teeth in the world of collegiate cycling. She discusses the ins and outs of the world of collegiate cycling in the US, and shares how she moved from crit racing into gravel and ultra-endurance, including results at Southern Cross, Leadville, and Unbound 100 with Lunch Box Racing. Sam is an alumni of Milligan University, and her community was tragically affected by the death of two cyclists, and hospitalization of many others just weeks ago as a result of a motor vehicle collision with a group of Milligan cyclists while they were out on a ride. The tragedy happened just days before Gravel Worlds, and she discusses the difficulty in deciding whether to race or not in Nebraska, and why she decided to race in her Milligan cycling kit. Sam shares how the Milligan community responded after the crash, including overwhelming support for the injured students and their families.

  This week, Kathryn sits down with Kara Folkerts, a full time trail running guide and global bikepacker, to talk about the overlap between endurance sport, travel, and cultural curiosity. Growing up a runner in Canada, Kara moved into ultra-running during university while studying ecotourism and outdoor leadership which introduced her to guided trail running trips. They cover Kara’s path into guiding, the logistics of a nomadic life, solo bikepacking, bikepack racing, and how she’s navigated RED-S, fueling, and recovery while staying active. Kara and Kathryn also discuss the realities behind the glamorous outdoors lifestyle too, including the mental load of guiding, the challenge of consistent training, and why Kara keeps choosing adventures that require problem-solving instead of perfect plans.

  Sep 8, 202627 min

  On our episode this week, Kathryn is live on the ground in Port Gamble WA, for the 5th annual Hangtime women’s freeride event. Created in 2021 by pro freeride athlete Hannah Bergemann, the event brought together 60 women from across the world to showcase the rapidly progressing level of women’s freeride. The weekend isn’t about competition, it centers development and progression, and encourages the riders to support each other to progress at their own pace. Kathryn chats with young, up-and-coming riders Mayumi Wakefield and Peyton Lee about what the events means to them, and where they hope to see women’s freeride go as their careers progress in the sport. We also hear from event organizer Hannah Bergemann about what inspired her to start the event, and the changes she has seen and continues to see in the sport.
