Moving to Bend as a runner, Serena Bishop Gordon struggled to find a community. When someone recommended cyclocross, everything changed. Serena is now a gravel/cyclo-cross racer and coach, part-time manager of the Liv Racing Collective, and the co-founder of a camp specifically designed to help women ride and race bikes. Talk about diving in head first!

Serena chats with Kathryn and Kristi about her journey to cycling, her challenges as a cyclist, and how she maintains her performance as she ages. The trio discusses their love of gravel, and what it means to get more women in the sport.
