  • 13. Saudi's First Pro-Cyclist Moroj Adil 🇸🇦 on Going from Learning to Ride 🚲 to Pro in Two Years
    May 17 2024

    Moroj Adil is Saudi Arabia’s first pro cyclist and you’d be forgiven for not knowing her name yet as she only started cycling two years ago. Yes, that is right, from not knowing how to ride a bike, to being on the Liv Alula Jayco Continental team, her story is one that needs to be heard and what’s most exciting is that it's just getting started.


    In this episode, we chat through:

    🚲 How Moroj got started

    🚲 Her first group ride - which was also her first time riding a bike

    🚲 Her first mountain bike race, The Neom Titan Desert Race and how she went from disqualified finisher to podium finish a year later

    🚲 The fateful The AlUla Tour

    🚲 Joining the Liv AlUla Jayco Continental Team

    🚲 The Traka; and

    🚲 Her Olympic and Paris Roubeux aspirations


    Moroj’s story highlights what’s possible when you don’t put limits on yourself. It’s a story of taking and making opportunities, working hard and then letting the magic happen. It’s a story of heart, self-belief and the support you receive along the way. Find Moroj on Instagram at @moroj.adi

    I hope you enjoy the episode!

    Apr 17 2024
    Today’s episode features a member of a very elite club with member numbers totalling around 50 worldwide at the time of recording. This club is the Triple Everest Hall of Fame. Not just any old member of this club, Dubai-based Nick Glover is a unique one as he is also believed to be the first type one diabetic to ever Triple Everest, and the first in the UAE to do so. Nick is exceptional in every sense of the word. He is also a two time cancer survivor and someone who’s not just satisfied with a personal accomplishment, but wants to take others along with him for the ride.
