Marley Blonsky will be riding her first RAGBRAI in 2023!! If you don’t know Marley yet, she is a big time adventure cyclist who does all kinds of crazy cool bicycle adventures, she's an influencer, and she advocates for people of all sizes, genders, races, ages, income levels and abilities to be included and welcomed in the bike community. A few years back Marley and Kailey were filmed while on a two day bikepacking adventure. In this Shimano Originals film called All Bodies on Bikes, the pair, who both self-identify as fat, bond over their love of bicycle adventure and their shared desire to build a more welcoming and diverse cycling community. Soon after the success of that film Marley and Kailey co-founded All Bodies on Bikes, where they are working to change the bike industry. They believe that anyone who wants to ride a bike should be able to, regardless of their size or weight. Marley will be biking with Shimano and you can meet her at the RAGBRAI Expo.
