S.V. Tenacious wasn’t adapted for inclusion. She was built for it. Here’s why that matters.

Meet the S.V. Tenacious, the only tall ship in the world designed so disabled and non-disabled people could crew together as equals. Built for inclusion—not adapted for it—Tenacious redefined what’s possible at sea. Wheelchair users helmed her. Blind sailors navigated with speaking compasses. And together, mixed-ability crews formed a bond that broke every stereotype.

In this epsiode, we explore the legacy and future of this pioneering vessel through personal stories, lived experiences, and voices from the movement to save her. You'll hear what it meant to those onboard, including one crew member who said:

The best part? The camaraderie, the jokes, the shared sense of purpose—we had a blast! It was definitely challenging at times, but we stayed warm and dry, and the results were amazing.

This isn’t just a ship—it’s a movement, a floating symbol of what’s possible when adventure becomes truly accessible.

From sea to summit, a movement rises — redefining limits, one mile at a time.

In a world that often sees disability as limitation, Wheels for Tenacious stands as a beacon of defiant inclusion. Born from the legendary SV Tenacious—an accessible tall ship where disabled and non-disabled sailors worked as equals—this cycling initiative brings that same ethos to land.

Founded by David Bainbridge, a man who has lived with intense chronic pain and complex conditions like Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Chronic Fatigue and Complex Regional Pain Syndrome. Wheels for Tenacious isn't just about riding bikes. It’s about rewriting the narrative on endurance, capability, and collaboration.

David’s journey began on the decks of Tenacious in his wheelchair and reached new heights during the grueling “Pulling Together Up Snowdon” climb, where he and fellow adventurers proved that teamwork could overcome even the steepest challenges. That spirit of defiance powered Race the Ship, a 197-mile inclusive race mirroring a sea voyage, and lives on in every event Wheels for Tenacious leads.

Whether it’s 92-mile treks like Barry to Gloucester or the upcoming Dunwich Dynamo ride, Wheels for Tenacious unites adaptive riders, allies, and advocates to challenge societal norms and empower each other through shared endurance.

This is more than a movement. It’s a revolution—on wheels.

What happens when a wheelchair user dares to outrun a tall ship—with a team of adaptive cyclists riding 197 miles across England?

Racing the Impossible is the true story of grit, heart, and innovation. From tandem bikes, wheelchair-bikes and hybrids to blind riders steering, this isn’t just a challenge—it’s a statement.

Led by David Bainbridge, this team didn’t just chase a ship. They shattered limits, proved the power of inclusive sport, and showed what’s possible when you stop asking why and start asking why not?

If you’ve ever been underestimated, counted out, or told to stay in your lane—this ride is for you.
