The Slow Spin Society Podcast Ep.23 - Talking Crust Bikes, Paralympics and more with Leo Rodgers
Hey everyone,
We’re extremely grateful to have Leo Rodgers on the podcast for this episode. As many of you know, Leo is an amputee and devoted fixed-gear cyclist. Having lost a leg, however, has not stopped Leo from embracing the #fixedlife and cycling as a means of transport and staying fit, but also as a pathway to more freedom and independence. As an inspiration to many, we had a great time picking his brain about his future competitive cycling plans, partnership with Crust bikes, and cycling opinions. Furthermore, we delved deeper into his unique situation as a one-legged cyclist and touched upon topics of inclusion in the cycling community, being differently-abled (i.e. physically/mentally impaired), and the benefits of effective urban planning and infrastructure.
You definitely don’t want to miss this one!
