What a way to end the first season of the podcast! Multi-time national champion and former professional bike racer Rahsaan Bahati and I got comfortable on his good friend Dan’s couch after a week of racing. We explored how a “punishment” turned into a passion and then a profession as he grew up in Los Angeles. Now that the glitz and glamor of the pro bike racer life is over, he’s working 9-to-5 with Zwift in Long Beach helping get more people more active more often and it’s working. We also talk about providing exposure to the sport for those who wouldn’t normal see it and the value of living outside of your bubble.

Rahsaan Bahati, one of America's top crit racers, continues to be a role model and inspiration to a new generation of cyclists, and the Bahati Foundation has mentored countless inner-city youths since 2008.
