In this episode of The Stable Cyclist Podcast, Cobe shares his journey from growing up in Durango, Colorado, racing mountain bikes through the Fort Lewis College system, and struggling to find his place at the World Cup level before discovering success in gravel racing. We discuss the lessons learned from years of racing, building confidence, overcoming self-doubt, and the steady progression that led to breakthrough performances at events like Mid South, Sea Otter, and Unbound Gravel. We also dive into life as a professional gravel racer with Trek Driftless, the challenges young athletes face after aging out of the U23 ranks, race preparation, training, equipment choices, and what it takes to compete at the highest level of the sport. Cobe opens up about his mindset, his rapid development as a racer, and why continuous learning has been the key to his success. If you're interested in gravel racing, endurance sports, cycling performance, or the future stars of the sport, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
