The Art of Adventure: Saoirse Pottie on Riding Beyond the Map

This week on Zone2Speak, host Juliana talks with Saoirse Pottie, an adventure cyclist whose journeys redefine what it means to connect through riding.
From her solo crossing of Africa, where every pedal stroke brought lessons in resilience and self-trust, to a collective ride through South America that turned strangers into lifelong friends, Saoirse shares how cycling has become her language for exploration and belonging.
We dive into what it takes to travel alone through vast and unpredictable landscapes, how shared adventure can shape deeper human connection, and how Saoirse uses her experiences to inspire others, especially women, to step into the unknown, chase joy, and build community on two wheels.

In this episode of Zone2Speak, Juliana sits down with Waleed Mohammed, a cyclist and advocate using the bike as a tool for visibility, empowerment, and change. From navigating questions of identity and representation to finding resilience on and off the bike, Waleed shares a powerful perspective on what it means to create space in cycling for those who’ve historically been left out.
We talk about the transformative role of sport, the importance of representation, and the personal journey that fuels Waleed’s mission. This is an honest, inspiring conversation about breaking barriers, building community, and redefining what cycling can be.

Ryan Le Garrec: Bikes, Waves & Broken Beauty

Filmmaker and cyclist Ryan Le Garrec returns to Zone2Speak for a wide-ranging conversation that drifts from surf breaks to bikepacking trails, and into the heart of creative work.
We talk about his upcoming Rwanda feature, the parallels between racing and filmmaking, and how exhaustion and vulnerability can crack us open to new perspectives.
From surf sessions and ultra-cycling stories to artistic integrity, brand collaborations, and the notion that being a little “broken” can make the world feel more vivid — this episode is about finding beauty in the raw edges of life.
