"It's something all women should be able to experience"
Rachel Atherton is one of the world's most successful downhill mountain bikers - she has won multiple European championships and is currently the World Champion in Women's Downhill Racing. Rachel has made it big in what has traditionally been considered a male-dominated sport...as has Shauna Coxsey, a professional climber who has won two world cup golds. As part of a special series for Newsday, they have both been discussing their passion for getting more women into sport.
