Special Blend Gravel Camp

Meet your crew for Fall camp!

💜 Joshua - Storyteller and filmmaker

Where sport meets art and also the other way around, Joshua is a storyteller and filmmaker, working to capture the magic of Special Blend Gravel through their experienced eye as a documentary filmmaker.

💜 Wil - Photographer

Committed to capturing only our good sides (yep, that's plural), Wil shoots by day, edits by night. You’ll see him (or maybe you won’t) perched high on a rock above the course, risking life and limb to get the shot.

💜 Sydney - Director of Marketing and Communications (aka marketing girly)

Weaving creativity into content, storytelling and everyday, Sydney’s outlook on life is infectious. She sees the small beauties in the little things and has a way of uncovering the confidence we didn’t know we had.

💜 Tony - Moto Magician

Tony is the moto magician, always seeming to appear right when you need him. He’ll grab your jacket, help with a flat tire, stop traffic and lend emotional support.

💜 Deb - Camp Mechanic, Educator and Aid Station Maestro!

With half a decade of experience as a bike mechanic, Deb launched her career at a local shop where she immediately recognized a gap in female-led support.

💜 Melinda - Licensed Therapist

Melinda is a licensed therapist, coach, and founder of Grit Performance who specializes in helping athletes strengthen the connection between mind and body. Her approach to sports psychology gives athletes practical tools to navigate pressure, build confidence, recover from setbacks, and perform at their best, not just on race day, but throughout the entire journey.
