Today I’m joined by the Founder of Rider Resilience, Nils Amleinckx. 5 and a half years ago, Nils was diagnosed with cancer and given 5 years to live. Nils firmly believes that mountain bikes have not only helped improve the quality of his life, but have also helped him extend it. We chat about his journey over the last 5 years and how important mountain biking has been to him. Hear how a film project was the catalyst for Rider Resilience, a community interest company which aims to amplify the benefits that the humble bicycle can have for anyone dealing with hardship, in whatever form. I was personally inspired by Nils’ positivity and drive and I hope this episode can help spread that inspiration and show just how powerful mountain biking can be. So sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Nils Amelinckx.
