Marley Blonsky is a bike activist and athlete who is sponsored by Pearl Izumi and Shimano, as well as the co-founder of the advocacy organized All Bodies on Bikes.[2][3] As the modern era of gravel cycling has become more popular in the United States, she has become a notable figure in the movement by making appearances on radio, podcasts, local, and national news outlets. [4][5] During these appearances, she often focuses on her work promoting size inclusivity in the bike community.[6]
All Bodies on Bikes[edit]
In the summer of 2018, Kailey Kornhauser and Marley Blonsky connected online and bonded over the shared experience of not being able to find a women's rain jacket that would fit each of their bodies.[7] They then shared their experiences with others through work shops talking about body size inclusion, after which they were contacted by Zeppelin Zeerip who was interested in producing a short film about them and their work.[7] The film was picked up by Shimano, who released the work at the end of March, 2021.[8]
