I've been to so many places and there's nowhere that those two intersect as much as they do here.” - Eliot Jackson, (47:31)

Starting something new is daunting, and vulnerable - and it can be challenging to find spaces that are open and accepting of newness. This is exactly what Devin Cowens is trying to combat. Devin is a connector, organizer, and advocate for BIPOC folks in cycling. As the community organizer for Radical Adventure Riders, Devin seeks to get femme, trans and non-binary folks of all skill levels onto the bike. Devin shares how she got into cycling in the first place, and the sense of power it brings her. Discussing how cycling affects people, Devin underlines how cycling can give a sense of escapism to Black folks. The trio discusses what it looks like to create a space for people of all skill levels, and what it takes to be comfortable in your not-knowing.

Marley Blonsky made a massive life change last year. She moved from Seattle to one of the new bike Meccas, Bentonville, Arkansas. A built-in bike community in an up-and-coming location making waves throughout the bike world seemed like the right fit.Once she arrived, Blonsky wasn't content to simply start living the bike bum lifestyle (which, frankly, I would have!). Instead, she got to work leaving her mark once again on the bike industry. Her new podcast, All Bodies on Bikes, pairs Marley with her co-host Maggie to explore all-body-inclusion and how it affects the industry at large. From the All Bodies on Bikes podcast page: “We will explore themes such as party pace and why Marley hates it, the limitations of equipment, finding clothing and cycling tools, group ride dynamics as a larger-bodied person, the impact that ‘All Bodies On Bikes' has had and can have on the cycling industry as a whole.”She's also working on creating her own clothing company to accommodate big bodies. It's a sore spot for most riders who don't fit the skinny-cyclist mold, and Blonsky intends to do something about it.Marley Blonsky joins host Dan Cavallari to give an update on her move to a new part of the country, her work in and out of the industry, and what the future holds for her big projects. Be sure to check out our other podcasts, videos, and live streams, and subscribe wherever you get our stories.

Co-Founder of All Bodies on Bikes and just exceptional human, Marley creates spaces for inclusion in the gravel community! We talk about what All Bodies on Bikes is, her journey into this community, and of course what the Gravel Family means to her!

It's no shocker that the endurance sports industry is exclusive. From size to gender to socioeconomic status, there is an "ideal" athlete (or so society tells us). That's why this week, we have Marley Blonsky on the show to talk all about getting larger athletes on bikes, and fat activism. As the co-founder of All Bodies on Bikes - a movement dedicated to creating and fostering a size-inclusive bike community, Marley has a lot to share. Sara and Marley discuss the problems with the body positivity movement, the word "fat", and how to be a better ally to larger riders. Going all the way back to childhood experiences, Marley shares how she has worked towards a place of peace with her body by being grateful for all it does for her.

What's going on guys, welcome back to another episode of Coffee and Van Chats on the Out of Collective Network. This week we sat down with Marley Blonsky who is more than just a professional athlete but she is an advocate for athletes in all bodies and walks of life! [...] The post Coffee & Van Chats – E121 – Marley Blonsky the Fat Cyclist appeared first on Out Of Collective.

A few years ago, Marley Blonsky bought a bike as a way to get to work. Soon after, she started bike camping and fell in love with the freedom of cycling. Fast forward to 2020, and Marley started All Bodies on Bikes with past guest and fellow body inclusive cyclist Kailey Kornhauser. The pair were featured in a beautiful short film, and they've been written about in some of the industry's most prominent cycling publications. Now, Marley is traveling around the country working with riders and brands to advocate for size inclusivity.Connect with Marley:Marley's websiteAll Bodies on Bikes websiteFacebookTwitterMarley's InstagramAll Bodies on Bike InstagramResources:Check out the Wild Ideas episode with Kailey Kornhauser, co-founder of All Bodies on Bikes.Episode sponsor:Teva

Marley Blonsky is a speaker, writer, advocate, influencer, and self-described fat adventure cyclist, and as the co-founder of All Bodies on Bikes, she's on a mission to make the sport of cycling more inclusive for people of all sizes and shapes.In addition to her advocacy work, Marley also rides for Cannondale, Pearl Izumi, Shimano, Ride With GPS, Chamois Butt'r, and Kuat Racks. She loves gravel and cyclocross racing despite coming in last in every single race she's done and she's also an avid bikepacker. Connect with MarleyAll Bodies on Bikes film FacebookInstagramTwitterIn this episode, we discuss… Why Marley describes herself as fat Why she didn't wear shorts for years Her journey to body acceptanceHow she got into cycling Making friends at stop lights The joy of bikepackingHow to poop in the woods Why paper maps are the best Getting food poisoning on a bikepacking tripThe story behind All Bodies on Bikes Marley's thoughts on the bike industry's efforts toward inclusivityLeaving the corporate grind to pursue a dreamWhy she feels successful in cyclocross racing — despite consistently finishing lastTricks for combatting inertia to get out the door and ride Coping with depression What her training looks like Dealing with internet trolls Embracing body neutrality Marley's database where companies can connect with outdoor apparel and gear testers of all sizes 

In this podcast, we talk to Marley Blonksy. Marley is one of the founders of All Bodies on Bikes, and one of their tag lines is “All Bodies Are Good Bodies. All Bikes Are Good Bikes.” In this episode, we talk about both subjects- bodies and bikes.  We touch on bikepacking, feeling comfortable in our bodies, social media, gravel racing, role models in the cycling community, and how Marley left a high powered corporate job to follow her passion of cycling and inspiring others. We hope you take a lot away from this conversation, because, like the title of our podcast states, cycling (and life) should be about showing up as we are.  

Marley Blonsky, a bike adventurer and advocate for inclusive cycling communities, is the co-founder of All Bodies on Bikes, a group that aims to help people of all sizes and abilities to get out and enjoy riding. Marley talks about getting some major bike brands to address the needs of riders in larger bodies; the power of putting the words “fat” and “cyclist” together; and why her new home of Bentonville, Arkansas (headquarters of Walmart), is “a Disneyland for bicycles.” This episode is sponsored by Radpower Bikes and Cleverhood.

Self-identifying as a "fat woman," Marley Blonsky is one of the most charming, inspirational people in the cycling world today.  Many of us first discovered Marley thru the documentary "All Bodies On Bikes."  Since then, Marley has used the attention the film brought to expand her work bringing attention to size inclusivity and building inclusive cycling communities.  Marley reminds us that we don't have to look a certain way, have a particular body type, or fit in any mold to be considered a cyclist.  This is an important message for us ALL to remember.In this podcast interview, Marley shares what gear and bikes she recommends to larger bodied cyclists, what an inclusive group ride or event looks like, and how we can all become allies to bigger bodied cyclists.Full Show Notes: https://www.femmecyclist.com/marley-blonsky-interview/Connect With MarleyInstagram: @marleyblonskeyWebsite: marleyblonsky.comAll Bodies On Bikes IG: @allbodiesonbikesAll Bodies On Bikes Website: allbodiesonbikes.comConnect With Femme CyclistInstagram: @femme_cyclistWebsite: femmecyclist.comFacebook Group: Femme Cyclist CommunitySupport the show (https://patreon.com/femmecyclist)

What does a cyclist body look like? If you envisioned a rail-thin racer with shaved legs, you're not alone. While that body type tends to garner attention and even celebration in the bike world, most cyclists around the world don't look like that at all.Marley Blonsky has worked hard to normalize all body types on bikes. She calls herself a "Professional Fat Cyclist," a category into which a high percentage of American cyclists fit.  And more importantly than that, Blonsky calls herself a "Body Positive Activist." That touches on an issue almost all of us face regardless of body size.Blonsky joins host Dan Cavallari on the Slow Guy on the Fast Ride podcast to talk about her rapid ascent into Cyclist Influencer status and what that means to her. She also lends insight into how we can build a more body-positive cycling culture based on inclusion. "Don't 'Other' me," she says, and that's a message that transcends body size, race, color, gender, and even bike type. Theme music: "This Year" by Angela Sheik 

Marley Blonsky is the co-founder of All Bodies on Bikes, an organization that seeks to make the cycling community more size inclusive. In this conversation, Marley talks about the longtime lack of inclusive sizing in cycling, from clothing options to equipment, why she recently decided to leave her job in corporate America to move to focus on growing her role in the cycling community, and why she views the word "fat" as neutral rather than derogatory. She also talks about ignoring criticism in favor of positivity, her program sponsoring non-traditional athletes to race at SBT GRVL, and her new database matching companies to plus size gear testers around the world.

When Raquel Vélez caught the skiing bug in her late twenties, she wanted to spend every waking moment on the slopes. But she couldn't find snow pants that fit. So the Silicon Valley engineer left her tech job and began a yearslong mission to learn to sew her own, which culminated in the launch of Alpine Parrot, a company that recently began selling innovative, adventure-ready pants designed for plus-size bodies. Meanwhile, cyclists Kailey Kornhauser and Marley Blonsky have been on their own quest to create space for plus-size bodies in outdoor sports. Both got into mountain biking as adults, and it was years before they realized that the surprisingly low weight limits on equipment made them unsafe for some riders. Now they run All Bodies on Bikes, a movement to educate cycling brands and the public about how to make the sport safer and more welcoming for people of all sizes.

In this episode, BikePortland's Maritza Arango takes over the mic for a conversation with Marley Blonsky and Kailey Kornhauser. Marley and Kailey are building a platform around All Bodies on Bikes, which is not only the name of their Shimano-sponsored documentary film that's been viewed over 230,000 times on YouTube, it's also the name of the nationwide nonprofit devoted to making the cycling world more inclusive of big-bodied bikers. Marley and Kailey are leading a "revolution of inclusion". What started out as a few tweets because they couldn't find rain gear that fit them, has become a national movement with a very bright future. Whether you identify personally with Kailey and Marley, or if you just don't get  what all the fuss about this dynamic duo is all about, I think you're going to love this conversation. Host Maritza shares how she has struggled with her weight all her life and asks Marley and Kailey to explain fat phobia, how their work is connected to feminism, and much more.

Our first Live and IRL episode! In the fourth episode of the Ride Buddies conversation series, we caught up with All Bodies on Bikes advocate Marley Blonsky and Pittsburgh's Major Taylor Cycling Club President, Shequaya Bailey LIVE at the SBT GRVL event in August.A longtime advocate for larger bodies on bikes, Marley Blonsky and her message skyrocketed to fame when Shimano released its “All Bodies on Bikes” video this past March. Shequaya Bailey, meanwhile, also spends a lot of her time advocating for inclusivity but with a focus on the BIPOC community. United in a dream for a more inclusive, accepting and safe cycling community, Blonsky and Bailey work tirelessly to get more folks in the saddle and change the industry, one event or one additional clothing size at a time. They sit on boards, lead rides, head organizations, write emails, attend events throughout the country yet somehow they still found the time to sit down to chat.Strangers until this recording, Blonsky and Bailey cover a lot of proverbial ground including their newbie mountain biking woes, ‘the Booty mantra', a PSA to please wear helmets on the bike (and on the toilet, apparently!), and how to feel safe on a solo bikepacking trip.LISTEN/SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST:Spotify: https://bit.ly/ride-buddies-spotify-p...Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/ride-buddies-itunes-po...YouTube: https://bit.ly/ride-buddies-youtubeGET THE EPISODE RECAP HERE: https://ridewithgps.com/ride_reports/...

But we realized that we had a story to tell and that we resonated with people and that biking is an amazing activity for people who live in larger bodies.” - Marley Blonsky “I think if we talk more about the JOY of moving our bodies then we invite more people in than if we talk about other motivations for moving.” - Kailey Kornhauser “I hope at the end of the day that people realize that there is so much more to them than their body… What really matters is what's inside, what our values are, our personality; this is just our vessel.” - Marley Blonsky “If you put so much stock and value on what you look like and not who you are as a person, and your character, then when you no longer have that body… what's left?” - Marley Blonsky Resources Mentioned: Social Media Group: All Bodies on Bikes FB Group All Bodies on Bikes Instagram Articles and Studies: Article with Marley and Kailey Glossary of Words to Use and Not Use Twins Study Metabolic Thrift and Genetic Basis The Story of Sam Blooms Books: What We Don't Talk About When We Talk About ‘Fat' Podcast Episode: Love Your Body Shape More with Julia Parzyck Connect with Marley on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

Joyriders, Meet Marley! Friends, I'm so stoked to introduce you to Marley Blonsky.  I absolutely love her unapologetic refusal to make biking in a bigger body about weight loss. GOOD STUFF. I'm not blowing smoke when I say that the content Marley makes just by living her life is stuff I wish I had seen 10 years ago! Hashtag inspiring. First, friends, Marley and I were supposed to record at StreamPDX this weekend, but there was change of plans. It didn't work out as we had hoped, this particular story below is one that I love and reference in the beginning of the show. I learned about it on this guy's podcast, Secular Buddhism.

I would be super grateful if you'd leave a rating or review in iTunes, Stitcher, or via whatever method you listen. It helps more gals find the show, and I believe the more stories we share, the more women who ride, we make this world - both our internal and external worlds - better with every revolution. Also, I read 5-star reviews out on the show because I love you. Ratings and reviews help with that, but nothing is better than a personal referral, it'd be rad if you would share the show with even just one woman who you think might dig it. Never forget, "Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage." Keep moving forward and until next time I hope you enjoy the ride. Forever Forward! xo ~C The Joyride Podcast is supported by listeners like you. Find out how you can keep the bike love flowing at thejoyridepodcast.com/support.
