Meet Josie! Howdy Joyriders, On this 9th episode of the Joyride I chat with Iowa native Josie Smith of Josie's Bike Life, a blog she's been keeping highlighting her life on two wheels, developing as a mountain biker, and profiling other women who ride. We'll talk about the beautiful solitude in trail riding, learning to ride with asthma, and of course, the evolving Bike Life!
