Elizabeth Emery's guests this month are Laura Crawford from Adventure Cycling Association and Caren Hartley of Hartley Cycles. Laura, an expert and pro in bike tourism, is the U.S. Bicycle Route System Coordinator at Adventure Cycling Association and she chats about her short term and long term goals. In 2009, Laura and her partner Russ founded The Path Less Pedaled, when they sold everything to travel by bike. Caren Hartley founded award-winning Hartley Cycles as the only female UK bike builder and is still one of the few. One of her primary interests is making bikes that fit all people – short and tall. They discussed her transition from fine art to making something functional, being a business woman, the appeal of 650 wheels, and of course, building bikes.

Ultra runner Courtney Dauwalter recently won the Moab 240 Mile Endurance Run outright by more than 10 hours. The Colorado resident grew up in Minnesota where she competed on the cross-country, track and Nordic-ski teams at her high school - she was an All American for Nordic - and went on to race for the Division I Nordic team at the University of Denver. She has been trail racing for six years now but it was just last year that she captured the attention of the sport with wins at Colorado’s Run Rabbit Run 100 and Arizona’s Javelina Jundred 100K (overall), where she broke both the women’s course record and the overall course record. Four months later in February this year, she set a new American women’s 24-hour record at the Riverbank One Day 24-Hour race in California, running 155.4 miles. The Moab 240 involves anywhere from three to five days on course and traces a giant, single loop of 240-miles with 29,467 feet of elevation gain and descent through the canyons and mountains of eastern Utah.
