We're Having an Adventure with Maggie Livelsberger

My guest for today’s episode is Maggie Livelsberger from Erie, PA. Maggie is coming off an impressive showing at DOOM where she took 1st place in the women’s category and became the first woman ever to complete the route on a singlespeed. Maggie finished the 390 mile course with a time of 3 days 4 hours and 3 minutes. Maggie has an impressive ultra-distance resume. She took 1st place at Coast to Coast Gravel Grinder in Michigan, 1st place single speed and 3rd place overall at Gravel Worlds, and 1st place at the Arkansas High Country South Loop.In this conversation Maggie and I get into how she was introduced to bikes and ultra distance bikepacking, how she interacts with and supports the cycling scene in Erie, her stories and experiences while racing DOOM, and how she’s able to connect with the child-like, adventurous part of herself during these ultra-distance events. I’m incredibly grateful to have met Maggie last year during the Arkansas High Country Race and I’m honored to have her as a guest on the show.
