Why Laura & Ted King Are Leaving Vermont for Bentonville

Ted & Laura King: Family, Gravel & the Big Move to Bentonville This week on Zone2Speak, Juliana sits down with Ted and Laura King to talk about the next chapter for their family: leaving Vermont behind and starting fresh in Bentonville. But this conversation goes far beyond a change of address. We talk about building a life around bikes, balancing racing with parenthood, growing a family while staying connected to the cycling community, and how both of them have evolved through the incredible rise of gravel cycling. Ted reflects on life after the WorldTour, Unbound, and the sport's transformation over the past decade, while Laura shares how becoming a mother, athlete, and community builder has reshaped her relationship with cycling. Of course, we couldn't resist putting them through a couples Fire Chat: who's more competitive, who packs more snacks, and who is most likely to suggest another crazy adventure? A fun, honest conversation about bikes, family, adventure, and embracing change. --- Follow Ted and Laura King  Laura → https://www.instagram.com/lauracameronking More on Laura → https://www.instagram.com/lauracameronking Ted → https://www.instagram.com/iamtedking More on Ted → https://direct.me/iamtedking/  --- 🎁 Discounts for Zone2Speak Listeners!
