About this listen

A podcast about women, bikes, and taking up space in America. Few things changed the public landscape for women quite like the advent of bicycles, and yet, the cycling industry's focus on white men makes one think that no one else rides. This is a retelling of who gets to adventure through the town square and out into America on the vulnerable, and venerable, bicycle.© 2023 Dynamo Jenny Social Sciences Travel Writing & Commentary

  • Ep. 6 Bringing It Back Around
    May 28 2020

    In the last episode of this season, we pay our respects to a few of the people who ensure that bicycle touring isn’t just an activity for the privileged few. They’re the community organizers, bike shop owners, workshop leaders, and everyday people who put a lot of effort into creating spaces that usher in a new, more inclusive era of cycling. This episode features zahra alabanza, Leah Benson, and Briana Cohen with Cheyenne Meyer and Darrell Garza.

  • Ep. 5 Hitting the Wall
    May 28 2020

    Stories in this episode investigate the tough moments, the ones that are completely out of our control, the ones we bring upon ourselves, and the ones that lead to bad ideas but great stories.

    Perhaps it’s in these moments where we grow toughness, our fortitude and our resiliency. This episode features Jasmine Reese, Alissa Bell, and Laura Killingbeck.

  • Ep. 4 Feats of Strength
    May 28 2020

    In Episode Four, we hear from women whose perspectives on athleticism and privilege have been shaped by their backgrounds, their bodies, and their love of the outdoors. Each of them lives in a body that traditionally isn’t associated with adventure. Yet here they are, riding across states and countries, and working to ensure they’re not the last.

    Their stories reveal the absurdity of widely held misconceptions about who rides and why they want to. This episode features Stephanie Puello, Marley Blonsky, and Kailey Kornhauser.
