SEASON 2, EPISODE 9
ABBIE SHAW

RELEASED MAY 24, 2022
Abbie and I had been trying to connect for a while, and I was stoked to finally sit down with her on a beautiful Saturday to chat bike stories! She made the round trip all the way from Bangor to Scarborough (over 4 hrs) and when I expressed my sincere thanks for the effort, she said “Not a problem! Plus you live near the Cheese Iron and now I can shop for Mothers Day.” So it was a win win for us both, except now I need some cheese.

While getting the mics set up we were able to catch up on life a bit before hitting record and diving in to lifetime of bike stories. I got to hear about growing up in northern Maine and making friends while conquering the fear of a monster hill, how riding bikes (and being outside in general) can bring joy and salvation when it’s needed the most, and how unplanned adventures can lead to the most exciting experiences in places like Guatemala, Iceland and the Philippines.

And no, we didn’t plan out our color-coordinated selfies. We’re just that cool.
