On this episode Kathryn is chatting with Southeast Gravel Series co-founders Christy Keely and Nichole Johnson from Greenville, South Carolina. Southeast Gravel is a six event series with events in small towns across North and South Carolina. Before they were event coordinators, Christy and Nicole were teammates on the Kenda racing team in the early 2000s. Although they lived in different parts of the country, they became fast friends and eventually both moved to Greenville to be near each other, and the world-class riding that the area has to offer. The pair discuss how their friendship evolved to starting a multi-race cycling series, and how they have kept the series true to its homegrown roots, supporting small towns in their region. New for 2026 Southeast Gravel will be adding two guided trips to Belgium during the Tour of Flanders and Paris Roubaix spring classics.
