We are very excited to welcome our new Executive Director, Austin Killips (she/her)!

Austin Killips is an athlete and activist who has been at the forefront of the fight for inclusion in sport for the last five years. She has set all-time records on bikepacking routes like the Arizona Trail and Tour Divide, stood on international and domestic podiums across disciplines, co-founded the ‘nice bikes’ racing team, and generated many pretty lines with biometric sensors.

In 2023 she was listed as one of Outside Magazine’s “Outsiders of the Year” and in 2025 she was cited as “very bad for the country” in a State of the Union Address. She is regularly referenced and interviewed on the subject of inclusion in sport by mainstream and cycling publications.

Austin also maintains an active writing and making practice with words published in The Guardian, Escape Collective, The Radavist, and The Nation. Her portfolio includes short films, gallery shows, typesetting projects, and occasionally in focus pieces of set dressing.

Off the bike you’re most likely to find her at the movies or in a corner with a book.

Let’s show Austin a warm welcome in the comments!
