Don’t Join an 80K Bike Race in South Africa Without Training. Or a Bike.
Failure isn’t the end. It’s often where success begins.
In part two of the “Fall Fails” series, Ben Walters takes us to South Africa, where an 80K bike race on the wrong bike led to lessons about preparation, community, and the power of laughing at yourself.
Discover why trying new things, even when you fail, builds resilience and joy.
