Hannah Simon on the Triple Crown, Atlas Mountain Race and bikes as a tool for good

Detours: A Bikepacking & Ultra Cycling Podcast

Hannah Simon is one of those people that make you feel like anything is possible. She has a can do attitude and is a downright joy to be around. Since toeing the line of her first ultra in 2021, and snagging a joint first place to boot, she’s tackled some of the most iconic events on the bikepacking calendar. In February 2024 she rounded out the podium at the Atlas Mountain Race as the third woman to cross the finish line. Not six months prior she completed the bikepacking Triple Crown — The Tour Divide, Colorado Trail Race and Arizona Trail Race. And while each of these accomplishments is impressive in it’s own right, Hannah is known for using the bicycle as a tool for good, riding to raise funds for causes that truly make the world a better place.

Hannah shares the highs and lows of her past season, her unexpected beginnings into bikes, life working at Chumba and so much more.
