Show Notes

David Meredith is the Dirt Marketing Manager for Full Speed Ahead and has been in the bike industry for years, including racing, owning a retail shop, and operating his own international bicycle brand. David comes on the show to share his experience in the bike industry, but also, to share his experience being a human pre-diagnosed with CTE, Stage 4.

In this episode, David and Cole discuss:

  • What CTE is (Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy)
  • How CTE impacts how David approaches life
  • What we ask of athletes in our industry

And much more.

We want to thank David for coming on our show and sharing his story on this platform. This is an important story and we hope you'll share this with your fellow outdoor community members to seek more understanding and hopefully change gear/policies to make our sports more safe.
