FAVORITE SPORTS MEMORY OR ACCOMPLISHMENT?

I’ll say racing in the Women’s Tour de France (when it was called La Grand Boucle) is my favorite sports memory because that stage race is such an iconic event in the sport of cycling. Because I’ve done it, I feel part of a much larger history and growth of women’s cycling and women’s sports in general. Women’s professional cycling has changed significantly in 20 years. It’s exciting to watch that happen as a former rider.

FUN FACT

I host & produce a women’s sports podcast called Hear Her Sports.
