Weronika Szalas: the fastest woman at the Accursed Race and life by bike

from Detours: Bikepacking, Ultra-Cycling and Adventures by Bike · host Mel Webb

Today on the show we have Weronika Szalas. For the last 5 years she's been living life by bike, touring solo as a woman around Europe. While Weronika is no stranger to riding her bike long distances, she rarely races, and was recently the fastest woman to complete the inaugural edition of the Accursed Race. The Accursed Race is a 1600km off-road bikepacking race in the Balkans, created by the team behind the infamous Transcontinental Race. Weronika shares about her experience racing through the Balkans, how much of what she's learned from touring translates well into racing and more about her life on the bike. This was such a chill lovely chat and hope you enjoy it as much as I did. She's well worth a follow on instagram as she posts stunning photos of her travels and has definitely inspired me to travel solo more by bike.
