👏Congratulations to Courtney (Courtney Brubaker-Zolman), who won our Last Chance “Share Your Story” Dust Bowl 100 entry contest!👏

Courtney’s comeback story inspired and reminded us that you can always overcome setbacks and rediscover your happy place on the bike!

Courtney previously rode the Dust Bowl in its inaugural year. Since then, she had some health and weight-related challenges and struggled to ride consistently. She’s now lost ~60 pounds since last October and is loving being back on the bike! 🙌

Courtney rides with the Tippecanoe Mountain Bike Association and balances with weekly Peloton rides.

More on Courtney!
Age: 43
Occupation: Social Worker, Licensing Case Manager
Fun Fact: She has 8 Silkie chickens, 2 Alaskan Malamutes and 2 Siberian Huskies! 🐾

Thanks for sharing your story, Courtney! We can’t wait to see you out on the 100k course this Saturday!

🎉Congratulations to Susanne (Susanne Bulington), who won the free Dust Bowl 100 entry from the Oliver Winery Cycling Team 🍒🍇🍋 Recon Ride Series giveaway!🎉

Susanne is 55 years young and works as a speech-language pathologist in Lafayette. She started cycling about 18 months ago and has built confidence and skills through Wabash River Cycle Club weekly women’s rides. Additionally, Oliver Winery Cycling Team 🍒🍇🍋’s recon rides encouraged her to conquer the fear of riding with clipless pedals!

Susanne admits that she signed up for Dust Bowl before she had even ridden gravel, but she loves new challenges and working towards a goal. She also recalls race director, Marc O’Leary’s interview and his passion for the event, thinking, “Someday I’d love to do that.” 🥹

Susanne also attributes much of her growth in cycling to Kayla Lawson with Tactic Fitness & Nutrition, stating that her coach has helped her tremendously in learning a brand new sport.

Previously, Susanne resided in Mississippi, but recently made the move back home to Indiana. She says, “Returning home to Indiana has been special, and exploring the beautiful rural roads by bike has made me appreciate the state in a whole new way. Riding the Dust Bowl feels like the perfect way to celebrate coming home.” 🌽

We’re excited to see Susanne out on the dusty roads of Eminence this Saturday! Thanks for sharing your journey and inspiring others!

🥃 Whiskey City… meet Wine Country. 🍷

Today the crew rolls into Lawrenceburg for the Whiskey City Criterium, where the corners are fast, the racing is spicy, and the event might be fueled by whiskey… but we’re proudly fueled by Oliver Winery. 😉

We’ll leave the whiskey for after the finish line—today we’re pouring everything we’ve got into the race.

Cheer on Sarah Larson, Sierra Siebenlist, Abby Jones, and Sarah Watkins as they take on the crit course and chase some fast laps in blue! 💙

Whiskey may sponsor the race, but we’re showing up to prove that wine pairs pretty well with speed. 🍷⚡️
