EP5.5 - A Riding Interview w/ Dr. Meg Fisher

Day 2 of Rebecca's Private Idaho starts with a 20 mile neutral ride to an uphill individual time trial. On the ride out to the start, Karl joined Dr. Meg Fisher for an interview while they rode together.

Dr. Fisher is an accomplished team USA Olympian, a doctor of physical therapy, athletic trainer, and coach. She is passionate about off-road cycling and empowering others, no matter their level of ability, to push themselves beyond what they think they can do.

This Montana based athlete helped Rebecca establish the Para-Athlete category at RPI and has advocated for the establishment of the category at other gravel events around the country.
In addition to this being her 4th time racing RPI, Meg has ridden a whole host of other gravel and mountain bike races.

It was a blast chatting with you Meg, thanks for your time.
