Life-affirming lecture with extreme cyclist Stig Nicolaysen
Get the story about the background to the crazy cycling experiences in Denmark, Europe and the three times he has stood on the starting line in the world’s toughest cycling race, Race Across America.
Hear about the motivation to throw yourself into these extreme cycling experiences. About how Stig’s son’s cancer in 2014 started the mission to inspire and motivate others to set goals and stay focused on the future when those closest to them are affected.
Stig looks forward to entertaining you with everything from bicycle crashes to sleep deprivation, from success to what happens when you only sleep an hour a day and see ghosts on the side of the road.
About cancer, blood clots in the brain and about the gratitude that we have met from the many who follow the project and perhaps themselves have – or had – a terrible disease close to their lives. About “believing in shit” and of course also about his meetings with Chris MacDonald and Bubber, both of whom have put their hearts into the “mission”. You also get an insight into what goal setting, motivation and teamwork ultimately mean.
Also hear the story of how two blood clots in the brain crushed the dream of completing the Race Across America in the third attempt in June this year. How 7 years of preparation with many deprivations and hard training were destroyed and how fragile life can be. “And how life is suddenly interrupted to be recreated in 6 hours at an American hospital in Los Angeles, and how a brain-damaged person returns to a normal life… About setting new goals and working hard to achieve them…
In addition, Team Nico has donated DKK 250,000 to children with cancer through the Children’s Cancer Foundation over the past 7 years.
A story that is about much more than participating in crazy bike races – told by an articulate and well-placed Stig, who with a twinkle in his eye has entertained the participants through more than 50 lectures. And about how Stig communicates goal-setting, motivation and teamwork in everyday life for the 35 participants in the health course Team Nico Sponsor Cycling, who in the sixth season cycle happily in the lid, get a healthier lifestyle, greater profits in everyday life and find “faith in shit” in a strong unity under a safe and secure framework.
