Morgan Aguirre: From a Rented Bike to PAS Racing

Welcome to the latest episode of Zone2Speak, where we dive into the inspiring story of Morgan Aguirre, a remarkable cyclist who transformed from a casual rider to a formidable force in international gravel racing. In a candid conversation, Morgan shares her unique journey that began in 2019 with a rented bike, motivated by a personal breakup, and evolved into a professional career racing for the prestigious PAS Racing Team. Discover how Morgan's passion and determination led her to conquer the European gravel scene, her strategies for mental resilience, and her seamless transition to the international racing arena. We also explore her experiences at the Unbound Gravel races, adaptations between European and U.S. gravel scenes, and the supportive community around her in Girona, Spain. Join me as I unpack Morgan's challenges, victories, and the personal growth that propelled her to the peaks of competitive cycling. --- Follow Morgan Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/morgan_aguirre/  --- 🎁 Discounts for Zone2Speak Listeners!
