True survival isn’t pushing past the pain—it’s knowing when to rise, and when to rest.
On June 22, 2024, David Bainbridge set out to conquer a 205-mile cycling challenge: Chase the Sun. With Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, CRPS, chronic fatigue, and a malfunctioning digestive system, his body was already in crisis before he even started.
What followed was a battle—not just with terrain or traffic, but with survival itself.
In this raw episode of The Pain Rebellion Podcast, we go full Bear Grylls: fear meets fire, failure meets fortitude. David didn’t finish the ride. But he made the bravest decision of all—he chose to live to fight another day.
Because sometimes, the toughest move isn’t to push through the wilderness. It’s to stop. And survive.
🎧 Subscribe to follow David’s journey and discover what it means to rise, rebel, and ride forward.
