A question I frequently hear from many of my female coaching clients is, "What supplements do you take?"

This is one I hesitate to answer because supplements are very individualized. Several of the supplements I take are based on bloodwork identifying things I'm deficient in.

That said, there are several supplements that *most* female cyclists can benefit from taking, and there are a few others that *many* other folks may be deficient in.

It always makes me sad 😢 when I hear folks tell me that they don’t have friends to ride with or are struggling to find a bike community to be a part of. And I relate—I’ve moved cities multiple times in my adult life, and have had to start over finding bike friends. 👯‍♀️

The good news is that female cyclists are the kindest, most welcoming women I’ve ever met. Here’s how I’ve gone about connecting with them.

Have you ever been out on the trail or road and encountered a mechanical issue that left you stranded and afraid to ride longer distances on your own? Or maybe you've been putting off taking care of your bike because you're not sure what you should be doing?

In either case, you're not alone. Many cyclists, especially women, haven't been given the encouragement or resources to learn these crucial skills.

That's why I'm thrilled to welcome Casey Wytaske to the show. Casey is a professional bike mechanic and certified mountain bike coach who has dedicated her career to empowering women in cycling.

After discovering her passion for bike mechanics while volunteering at a local non-profit bike shop in 2013, Casey went on to become certified at the United Bicycle Institute and now works as a demo technician for Liv Cycling.

In today's episode, we'll discuss why there are so few female bike mechanics, essential maintenance skills every cyclist should know, and what tools you should have in your home toolkit. Casey will also share insights about the Girls Gone Gravel mechanic camps she leads and offer practical tips for getting your bike ready for riding season.

If you've ever hoped to become better at bike maintenace, this is an episode you don't want to miss.
