Blind Faith: The World's Fastest Blind Man on a Motorcycle | Ben Felton & Kevin Magee - 793


Listen Later

Imagine riding a motorcycle at a breathtaking speed of 270 kph. Now, picture doing it with your eyes closed, unable to see a thing! That’s the reality for Ben Felton, who couldn’t see a thing even before he even got on the bike. Teaming up with Australian Motorcycle Grand Prix legend Kevin Magee - who has an impressive 36 Grand Prix races under his belt and is the winner of the 1988 Spanish Grand Prix - Ben set out to become the world's fastest blind man on a motorcycle. And in true legendary fashion, they achieved this remarkable feat in March 2018.

Today, I’m chatting with these incredible lads about their personal and shared journeys. From Kevin’s brain surgeries to Ben being told at 15 that he was going blind and there was nothing he could do about it, their stories are nothing short of inspiring.

This is an epic conversation that breaks down barriers, redefines what’s truly possible, and puts the ‘ability’ back into disability.
