We’ve got an exciting line-up for this year’s Seattle Bicycle Expo, to be held March 9 and 10. From thrilling stunt shows to DIY-crafts to inspiring presenters, Expo has it all. A special lineup of speakers and presentations will take to three separate stages, headlined by The Ryan Leech Stunt show, London 2012 silver medalist Jennie Reed, and photojournalist Mark Johnson. Leading up to the Seattle Bike Expo, we will highlight some of these presenters here on the blog.

One fit grandma!

In the past eight years, she has averaged over 10,000 miles of riding per year, logging well over 13,000 miles this past year.

Last summer, to celebrate her 60th birthday, Cindi rode 50 centuries in 50 states in 50 days. That's right, 50 consecutive days of riding 100 miles per day! She started in Hawaii and then flew to California where she met a support team of friends who did the driving in the lower 48 before she flew to Anchorage to ride her final century.

Come hear her story on Sunday and catch a little inspiration for your next adventure.
