Biking for Big People Webinar

The world looks a little different when you live life in a larger body. Marley Blonsky and Kailey Kornhauser are intimately familiar with this, having grown up as fat kids and now living and riding bikes as fat women. As the cycling world is rapidly growing and more people of all sizes are getting into biking, Marley and Kailey are excited to share their wealth of knowledge with others who live in a large body.

The class will be held virtually on Zoom, with a recording available to all registered participants afterwards.

For our May classes, we’ve set aside 25% of seats in the course for free. Please only use this option if you need it!
