In early 2022, Liesl Lar had never been on a road bike, but when she and her husband Townsend pressed pause on a difficult fertility journey, they knew they would need another challenge to focus their energy on. When a friend of theirs mentioned they were training to ride the 105-mile Fistful of Dirt gravel race in Cody, Wyoming, they went all in.
After months of fertility treatments and bedrest, training for the race transformed Liesl. Townsend had done a few bike races in the past, and over the course of six months they grew closer as they gained the skills and confidence to tackle the Wyoming gravel.
