Join us LIVE on UltraCycling Magazine as Amit sits down with James Benson-King — “The Biking Viking” — one of the world’s most compelling endurance cyclists and adventurers. James recently set a Guinness World Record by riding from sea level in Khambhat, India, to Umling La (5,800 m), the world’s highest motorable road, in just 14 days, 4 hours, and 26 minutes.
We’ll talk about the extreme heat, monsoon chaos, and high-altitude climbs of that ascent… plus his legendary 32,000 km ride from Alaska to Argentina, his top-10 finish in a 4,000 km European ultra race, and his bold upcoming plan: a solo, unsupported expedition across Antarctica.
James will also share his powerful personal journey—from overcoming a childhood heart condition to becoming a VP at JP Morgan by age 28, then walking away to pursue a life of adventure, resilience, and purpose.
The show is live, and viewers on Facebook and YouTube and ask James questions in real time. Don’t miss this inspiring conversation with an athlete who is redefining human endurance.
