SERIES DESCRIPTION
Radical Adventure Riders (RAR) and Race.Ancestors.Health.Outdoors.Knowledge (RAHOK) present the Within & Without podcast. A series of off the chain dispatches from BIPoC and Allies discussing tensions within the cycling community and how we connect to ourselves and the world around us through cycling and the outdoors. Recorded throughout 2020 amidst a global pandemic and racial reckoning, this series shares the lived experiences of our moment.

These conversations help move us toward transformation:a transformation that centers the freedom and justice of our earth, amplifies voices from across the gender spectrum, and centers Black, Indigenous and People of Color.  We acknowledge the energy of discomfort these conversations may bring and hope this very energy will help shift the greater dialogue to support the changes needed in outdoor and cycling communities - and our world.

Learn about the RAR Gravel Program, why it was created and what people experienced at the first gravel camp. Featuring interviews from gravel camp attendees Martina Brimmer, Natalia Cortes, Effie Bourgin, Izzy Sederbaum, Jess Kim, Hannah Dhonau, Katie Scott, Hannah Somhegyi, Maddi Mccann, Lauren Nagel and Christina Francois the Director of the Appleton-Whittell Research Ranch.
