This week we welcome back US gravel juggernaut Lauren De Crescenzo. We hear what Lauren has been up to since her last appearance on the show in 2021 (including winning Unbound), and Lauren opens up about recovering from a traumatic brain injury after a crash on the road in 2016. She talks about how that recovery process has given her the mindset to take on hard days on the race course. With a background in road racing, Lauren was hesitant to join the Lifetime Grand Prix due to her lack of mountain bike experience. But, she jumped in head first for the 2023 season, and she shares the joy she has found in learning a new discipline of the sport. Lauren will be featured on the Lifetime’s series Call of a Lifetime which debuts on January 26.
