The Stable Cyclist

• KAIT BOYLE | RESILIENCE, RECOVERY AND MAKING HISTORY AT MARJI GESICK | The Stable Cyclist Podcast

  This week’s guest is Kait Boyle, one of the most respected names in ultra-endurance mountain biking. Kait’s journey is one of transformation — from her early days in outdoor education to becoming a professional MTB racer and 24-Hour World Champion. She shares what drew her to the world of endurance riding, how it shaped her view on challenge and growth, and what it means to live a life defined by resilience. We then dive into the car accident that nearly ended her racing career — a moment that forced her to rebuild physically, mentally, and emotionally. Kait reflects on how that experience reshaped her understanding of purpose and community. Finally, we explore her incredible performance at the 2025 Marji Gesick, where she became the first of three women ever to finish under 12 hours, earning the coveted belt buckle alongside Syd Schultz, Kristy McBride, and Julie Momber. Together, they made history — and Kait takes us inside the teamwork, grit, and mindset that made it possible.

• ALEXIS CARTIER | BIKEPACKING THE ENTIRE LIFETIME GRAND PRIX | The Stable Cyclist Podcast

  This week on The Stable Cyclist Podcast, JP welcomes Alexis Cartier, the Canadian gravel racer redefining what it means to commit to a cause. A professional rider from Montreal and passionate advocate for climate action, Alexis has made headlines this year by choosing to ride his bike to every race in the LifeTime Grand Prix, rather than flying or driving. Now over 10,000 miles into this journey, he joins JP to reflect on the lessons, the challenges, and the incredible experiences from a summer spent fully powered by pedals. With the final race of the season — Big Sugar Gravel — on the horizon and a 2,000-mile ride home still ahead, Alexis opens up about how this mission has reshaped his outlook on the sport and the environment. Together, JP and Alexis explore the intersection of cycling, sustainability, and storytelling, reminding listeners that real change starts with the choices we make every day.

• TILLY SHULL | THE ART AND EMOTION OF GRAVEL MEDIA | The Stable Cyclist Podcast

  In this special episode of The Stable Cyclist Podcast, JP sits down with gravel cycling’s photography star, Tilly Shull. Known for her stunning imagery and storytelling from inside the LifeTime Grand Prix, Tilly shares what life is really like behind the lens at some of the biggest gravel events in the world. She and JP talk about the intensity and emotion of photographing in Stillwater, OK, as wildfires threatened MidSouth 2024, and how those moments shaped the way she approaches her work. The two also dive into lighter topics — from their favorite “on the road” foods to the best playlists for working in the studio — as well as a few behind-the-scenes stories from epic rides like Chase Wark and Ted King’s Mega MidSouth FKT. This episode kicks off a new once-a-month series where JP introduces listeners to the creative minds behind the cameras in the cycling world — the storytellers who capture the soul of gravel.
