Firstly, Happy New Year! The first episode of 2016 is also the first one about a cycling challenge. And not just any challenge. Cycling around the world! Two friends, Will Frazer and Johan du Plessis, who met at university, each pursuing their careers in London and further afield decided in October 2013 that they were going to cycle around the world together. Not long after, in April 2014 they set off from the UK. 23,500 kilometers, 234 days and 21 countries later they arrived in Miami (USA), their finish line. Covering an average of 100 kilometers per day, this wasn’t for the faint hearted. We talk about their motivations, the highlights and low points, the kindness of strangers as well as what they leant and the advice they would give to others thinking about embarking on their own adventures. Laughs, crashes, broken bikes and lightning strikes all feature. Two fascinating characters who have a real taste for adventure, it’s an interesting discussion and will hopefully wet your appetite and provide inspiration for 2016!
