Tom Walker came to my attention when 50to01 posted a video about his Pemberton train gap crash back in 2020. For anyone who’s seen this gap in videos or photos, or in person, you’ll know it’s not something you’d want to fall off of, which is exactly what Tom did. His road to recovery hasn’t been straight forward, but Tom is back riding and more importantly happy. We sat down to hear all about his experience over the last few years as he’s grafted and dug deep physically and mentally to overcome the hand he was dealt. I personally find this one super inspiring and I hope you do too. So sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Tom Walker.
You’ll find Tom on Instagram @tomwalker92. The most recent 50to01 video about Tom is here.
