Thanks for tuning into today’s podcast, where Beka and I are chatting with Jess Hana, AKA, Jess the Maker.

Some of you may know Jess from her hilariously funny Instagram reels, where she has some very relatable content for any mountain biker. But also, Jess has been in the mountain biking world for a while- She’s a mountain bike coach, and she’s involved with women-led communities like Women of Oz, World Ride, Ladies All Ride, and many other women-led brands like ground keeper custom, and cosmic dirt. 

Most of all, Jess is a genuine, authentic, person who strives to make us laugh, connect others, and help women on and off the bike. Stay tuned for our fun chat with jess about her bike, pedals, viewer questions, and more.

As she says, “My goal is the help others realize that there is room for everyone in mountain biking regardless of their background.”-Jess “The Maker” Hana
