I finally managed to get Richard in front of the camera and mic for a little summary on how he managed to get from a casual cyclist to an ultra-endurance cyclist.
About Mr. Lake -
Richard Lake is an endurance cyclist who transformed from using cycling as transportation into taking on some of the toughest bikepacking events in the world. Starting in 2015, he quickly developed a passion for long-distance cycling, completing multiple century rides and tackling ultra-distance events like Paris-Brest-Paris (PBP). In 2020, Richard took on the iconic Land’s End to John O’Groats (LEJOG) ride, cycling from the southernmost point of England to the northern tip. After years of preparation, he completed the Transcontinental Race (TCR) in 2022, covering 4,000km across Europe in 22 days, 4 hours, and 10 minutes. Along the way, Richard embraced bikepacking, wild camping, and challenges like Everesting. His next focus is on gravel cycling and hopes to secure a spot at Badlands 2025.
