EP 78 - Too disabled to ride a normal bike, 'too able' to be a classified elite paracyclist

In this episode, Saar talks with Michelle Knappmann, a Danish paracyclist and handbiker who started the sport at 27 after a serious injury left her unable to ride a regular bike. Michelle opens up about the frustrating reality of being judged as 'too able' to compete at elite level, the lack of media coverage in paracycling, and what it actually takes to train as a disabled athlete with chronic pain. She also shares her next big goal: attacking the world hour record — and dares World Tour teams like Lidl-Trek and Uno-X to sponsor her while she does it.
