Paige Onweller: From P.A. to Podiums

A former collegiate middle distance runner, Paige had only ever ridden a bike to rehab injuries until that all changed in 2020. A few events on Zwift followed by some TT's and then her first ever mass start gravel event in 2021 was the beginning of a beautiful journey on the podiums at Unbound, Rule of Three, Gravel Nationals, and more. Her big break came after a solo win at Big Sugar a few years back where he meticulous prep and calm confidence proved she is a woman to be feared on the bike.

I sat down with Paige at her home just outside of Bentonville, AK to talk all things gravel. Paige brings a unique perspective to the world of gravel given her long experience as a Physician's Assistant and a relative newcomer to the sport of cycling. We talked Valley of Tears, Mid South, cyclists and GLP-1's, plus a few games and fantasy drafts. Paige brings her scientific way of thinking to every decision on the bike and it was a treat to work through her process on everything from tire selection to race prep.
