Rick Long TT Sidecar Champion and World's Strongest Disabled Man Winner

In today's show we hear the inspiring story of  Rick Long. Rick was the most successful sidecar passenger in the Isle of Man TT’s history with eight victories in total.

Then in 2008 at the legendary Hockenheim race track, Germany, he lost his left leg and his driver, Steve Norbury in a tragic racing accident.

Following his recovery Rick tells the story of rebuilding his body, his return to racing, becoming a personal trainer and how he discovered his new found passion for competing in top level World Strongest Men competitions.

It's incredible how Rick is top of his game in not just one but two extremely challenging sports. I asked Rick where he gets his determination to succeed from and if it is possible for others to learn from his example.
Discover Rick's advice in this unique episode!
