In this episode, host Servaz van Berkum shares aspects of Marc Bemelmans' Narrative Record, an educator and passionate cyclist. As a vocational teacher in Amsterdam, Marc trains the next generation of bike mechanics. Together, they discuss his life, his love for bicycles, and his strong ties to both the mechanical craft and the field of education, where he has dedicated most of his career.

Narrative Records document the lived experiences of specialists like Marc, providing valuable insights of what shaped them, what their daily lives feel like, their specialized and unique knowledge, and changes they envision.
