Shawna Young has been chasing a podium on the Iowa Gravel Series for a little while. It alluded her at Soldier Cutoff Hillduro thanks to a wrong turn, but fortunately she was able to pull off a 3rd place finish at the 2023 Glenwood Gravel; despite the crazy weather we had on the race.

In this episode of the podcast we get to know Shawna a little bit by first going down memory lane to her younger days in Oregon. We talk about the joy of custom bikes, electric shifting and finding a great training group. Shawna is definitely someone to look for in the crowd if you’re competing in race.
