S5/E4: Growing up in Rhode Island, a young Ainsley Judge began riding bikes along side her family — often on fun road trips and camping excursions. But it was when she went to school in Minneapolis-Saint Paul that her true love of cycling took hold. She shares stories from one particularly memorable ride when she and a close group of friends rode around all 5 Great Lakes — finding some hilarious experiences, painful lessons, and an all-out shared love of adventure on two wheels.
When we recorded this episode in April 2024, Ainsley was the Director of the Portland Gear Hub. She has now begun graduate studies in urban planning at Tufts University, but remains active and a large supporter of this great organization.
The Portland Gear Hub is a non-profit bike + outdoor gear shop located at 155 Washington Ave that promotes cycling, reuse, sustainability, and outdoor equity as a part of Ketcha Outdoors.

OOPS! — I just want to apologize for the sub-par audio on Ainsleys track. It get's better around 7min in, so I appreciate your understanding that technology isn't always as fun as riding a bike.
