In this episode of the Seek Travel Ride podcast I interview Stevie Gaebe an endurance athlete and Ultra-distance Cyclist. I first met Stevie during the 2022 Normandicat 900 ultra-cycling event in Northern France. We had both lined up at the start-line, nervous at what would unfold over the course of the next three days. Surrounded by men we were also some of the only women who had turned up to challenge themselves in this self supported long distance event. We would end up riding together for the first few hours and as I learnt more about Stevie I knew her story was one that needed sharing.
Over the course of the episode Stevie talks about her cycling journey, how she made the shift from cycling as a commuter, to cycling for fitness. She discusses how she enjoyed continually pushing the boundaries, from long distance sportives, to then signing up and successfully competing in Ironman Switzerland.
After the Ironman event Stevie was searching for the next challenge and the call of ultra-distance cycling came her way. Stevie did all of the above with her partner and Husband Tom and so they signed up as a team of two for the Normandicat 900 Ultra-cycling event. But hours before taking to the start Tom had to withdraw from the event, leaving Stevie alone on the start-line.
I really enjoyed talking with Stevie about her Normandicat 900 experience. How she overcame the challenges which came her way and her insights into what it takes to compete in ultra-distance cycling events.
