Drew Dillman | From Imposter Syndrome to Racing With the Best

What this episode covers

In this episode of The Stable Cyclist podcast, Drew Dillman returns to talk about his evolution as a professional gravel racer, the confidence he's gained over the last two seasons, and what it's really like lining up against the best riders in the sport. Drew shares how training, consistency, and experience have transformed his mindset from feeling like an outsider in the gravel scene to believing he belongs at the front of the biggest races in North America. We also dive into a deeper conversation about identity, family, faith, community, and the challenge of balancing big racing goals with the realities of life off the bike. From chasing Grand Prix wildcard spots and targeting races like Unbound and Gravel Worlds to raising a family and building meaningful relationships within the cycling community, this conversation goes well beyond watts and results. If you've ever struggled to separate your self-worth from your race results, this episode is for you.
