Kerry Werner | Life After Pro Racing & Reinventing Purpose in Cycling
from The Stable Cyclist · host John Peter
Kerry Werner returns to the Stable Cyclist Podcast to talk about life after professional racing. In his last appearance, Kerry opened up about navigating major life transitions — a conversation that resonated deeply with listeners. This time, we dive into what it actually looks like on the other side of a pro career: shifting identity, redefining purpose, and finding meaning beyond the start line. Kerry now works inside the sport in a new way, creating media content around race day while collaborating with Russell Finsterwald and The Black Bibs. We discuss the strange tension of covering the front of the race instead of being in it, the creative process behind storytelling in cycling, and where Kerry now draws his inspiration. As always, we wrap with Random Fire.
