Welcome to the first of six audio interviews with local cyclocross personalities and promoters that we’ll be sharing in the coming weeks. We’ve partnered with the Oregon Bicycle Racing Association to broadcast these interviews in advance of their 2013 Cyclocross Championship event coming to Troutdale on November 9th.
The first of the series features an interview with Molly Cameron, a veteran professional racer and owner of Portland Bicycle Studio, a retail and service shop in northwest Portland.
The interview covers everything from her early racing days, her first-ever cross race (which she won using a road bike), how she got hooked on cyclocross, and her international racing experiences. Molly also talks with host Neil Green about her bicycle fitting studio and coaching and her desire to wear the prestigious 2013 OBRA Championship winner’s jersey.
