Getting the Right Fit with Kim Dallara (Episode 96)
If you are a cyclist, you know just how long you have to be on that saddle. And those things usually aren’t the most comfortable! As women, they can be especially uncomfortable, because of the lack of resources available surrounding saddle comfort and vulvar health. Unfortunately, many women have accepted the painful woes of ill-fitting bikes rather than examining the systems that normalize our discomfort – both on and off the saddle. This week, Shaunna and Lisa welcome Kim Dallara onto the show. Kim is the only female clinical bike fitter located in Kentucky and focuses her efforts on helping women get the right bike fit and have a pain-free ride.
The trio discusses why it’s important to have female bike fitters, and the hurdles Kim had to overcome to do so. Further, Kim highlights the importance of community, and especially, female communities in sport.
