Marley Blonsky on Building All Bodies on Bikes (And Why Cycling Needs to Be More Inclusive)
from The Stable Cyclist · host John Peter
Marley Blonsky is the co-founder of All Bodies on Bikes, a movement dedicated to making cycling more welcoming and accessible for riders of every size. But Marley didn’t set out to start an organization. She originally found the bike during a difficult moment in her life — navigating divorce, rebuilding her identity, and searching for community. What started as a way to get around Seattle quickly turned into a passion for riding, adventure, and eventually advocacy. In this conversation we talk about: • How Marley discovered cycling in her late 20s • The barriers many riders face when the industry isn’t built for them • The origin of All Bodies on Bikes and how it grew into a national nonprofit • What inclusive cycling actually looks like in practice • Gravel events like Unbound and Midsouth • Fueling long rides, gas station snacks, and the joy of riding bikes We also get into a deeper conversation around body image, health, and the evolving discussion around GLP-1 medications in endurance sports. This episode is thoughtful, funny, and a reminder that the bike can be for everyone. https://silca.cc/discount/thestablecyclistpod or use the code is "StableSilca15" If you’d like to ask JP a question for an upcoming Ask JP Anything episode, send him a DM on instagram @thestablecyclist or send an email to [email protected] The companies supporting JP and this channel: Maplelag Resort - https://www.maplelag.com/ Wark's Cycling Services - https://www.warkscyclingservices.com/ Ignition Coach Co. - https://www.ignitioncoachco.com/ Use code StableCyclist100 Gulo Composites - https://gulocomposites.com/ Flow Formulas - https://flowformulas.com/discount/JOHNPETER15 Wahoo Fitness - https://amzn.to/48RUSqe Owl City Cycles - https://www.owlcitycycles.com The Black Bibs - https://amzn.to/3XRlMtm Dawn to Dusk - https://amzn.to/48zKi8p Some of the above are affiliate links, but all are personally vetted and recommended Mental Health Advocacy - Go4Graham - https://www.go4graham.org/ Resources: 988 Lifeline: https://988lifeline.org/ International Bipolar Foundation: https://ibpf.org/ National Association for Mental Illness: https://www.nami.org/
