Welcome to our third episode in our SBT GRVL series! This week Kathryn and Kristi welcome cyclist and mom of two, Lani Woods. Lani is captaining a GRVL Femmes team at SBT this coming weekend, leading a group of five women through the event. Lani got her start in cycling after a knee injury in 2020 sidelined her from obstacle course racing. She found joy on the bike, and loved being able to push herself further and further. Lani has raced almost every discipline of cycling, but has gravitated towards ultra endurance events and, more recently, gravel racing. Lani spent most of her life in California, but has recently moved to Hawaii, and she is loving getting to explore new dirt roads on the island, and connecting with a new cycling community. She gives her advice for anyone who is curious about getting into gravel, and highlights why it is important to have visibility of all women on gravel start lines.
