SEASON 3 / EPISODE 11: Dave Snyder first swung his leg over a bike at 1-years old, and though he admits there may be a few foggy memories along the way, he can only remember ever crashing once. Pretty impressive for a guy, that as of today, has ridden over 17,000 miles just this year! But that wasn’t always the case. Due to some unexpected trials and tribulations, Dave took a very long hiatus from riding a bike — nearly 17 years. And during that time, he found himself on a very unhealthy path. Reaching over 300 lbs, full of aches and pains, he knew he needed to make a change for the better. And that’s where the bike re-entered his life, along with a much healthier relationship with mind, body, and spirit. Dave recounts the process he went through to feel healthy again, and the associated attitude shift that allows him to share his genuine smile and undeniable love for two wheels again. Both a great guy, and a wonderful inspiration, it was great chatting with Dave.
