Hannah Shell
Hannah started her cycling career in 2017 racing on the road, where she worked as a domestique on DNA pro cycling, Papa John’s P/b Trek, and IS Corps pro cycling. In 2021 she shifted her focus to gravel and quickly discovered a passion for the longer races.
Simply put, Hannah likes to do hard things. She believes that most things in life get easier as you dedicate time and work to them. While Hannah wouldn’t describe herself as a natural talent, her results say otherwise. She prides herself in putting in the hours of hard work to compete with the best — she loves the humble and hardworking attitude cycling requires. Hannah was selected to represent the USA in both gravel and cross country marathon mountain bike world championships in 2024, and competed in the Lifetime Grand Prix in 2022 and 2023.

Fall Roasted Vegetable Steak Salad
Ingredients:
2 GoodLife Brands Certified Piedmontese Center Cut Boneless Grass Fed & Finished Ribeye
Worcheshire sauce
Salt
Meat Mitch NAKED seasoning rub
Cayenne pepper
2 small yellow potatoes - chopped
1 medium to large sweet potato - chopped
1 red bell pepper - chopped
1 red onion - wedged and peeled layer from layer
4 Garlic cloves - whole
2 tbs extra virgin olive oil
2 cups fresh spinach
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 avocado - chopped
1/4 cup feta
1/4 cup roasted almonds - chopped (pro tip: even if they are pre roasted, toast them again in a pan or toaster oven until fragrant)
Instructions:
- Prepare the steak: remove steak from packaging and blot with paper towel to remove excess juices. Place on a large sheet of aluminum foil. Cover all sides of the steak in worchestshire sauce, salt, seasoning rub, and cayenne pepper. Wrap in foil and refrigerate for at least 1 hour prior to cooking.
- Preheat the oven to 420.
- Roast Vegetables: chop potatoes, red pepper, and onion. Place on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Add the garlic cloves to the sheet — leave them whole. Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 45 min at 420 tossing once half way through. The onion will burn slightly — that’s the best part.
- Grill the steak: ensure grill is at maximum heat — ours reads 550 Fahrenheit. Place steaks on lower rack and follow the procedure: 2 min - rotate 90 degrees - 2 min - turn over - 2 min - rotate 90 degrees - 2 min - move to top rack - 2 min - move to board to rest. If you want your steak more done than medium rare, leave it on the top rack longer (1 min to 90 seconds).
- Let steak rest for 8 minutes DO NOT SKIP!!
- Cut steak — this should be a perfect medium rare.
- Combine spinach, roasted vegetables, avocado, lemon juice, feta, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
- Serve plates and top with toasted almonds to taste. Optionally add hummus as an additional topping.
