The Iron Empress | Spin Cycle Podcast – Ep 12 with Donna McConnell

This week, Cam and NJ sit down with The Iron Empress or Donna McConnell to her friends. We discuss her rap career, being a journalist and how her love of cycling grew, where she now competes in Triathlons. She is part of the 10IronWomen who strive for a 50/50 gender split within the sport; Fettle Bikes is a female-owned and founded bike business, and she does her work with previous Guess Chain Gang Cyclist and Cycling Culture Club.

In the show's final section, we do an extended Q&A to discuss Donna's list of normalised topics in cycling that are toxic and white-bib propaganda.
