Alyssa Kohn

Operating her own bicycle tour and rental business for 8 years, Alyssa relished in sharing her love of cycling and the city of Minneapolis with many. While transitioning from being self-employed, she also works as a freelance Spanish translator. Outside of work, she dabbles in many different types of cycling: cyclocross, bikepacking, gravel, mountain biking, commuting, and even some bike polo. While partial to cycling, she also enjoys running, hiking, cross country skiing and snowboarding. As a native Minnesotan, it’s unsurprising that she loves winter. You can read about her cycling and multi-modal adventures on her blog, cagefreed.bike.
