William's Interview

Quick chat with William :)

GUEST // Andrew Bernstein

Today’s guest is the incredible Andrew Bernstein, affectionately known as "Bernie". Bernie possesses a rare combination of both physical and mental strength. Andrew is an accomplished journalist, editor, race promotor and cyclist. Over the past 16 months, he has had to draw on every ounce of that strength to rebuild and repair after a near fatal hit and run while he was riding his bike. Bernie currently resides in Boulder, Colorado. Bernie’s resilience is the stuff of legend and I’m honored to have him on the podcast.  I want to first recommend the podcast that Bernie participated in with Outside Magazine.
