In this episode, we recount a challenging experience during our cycling trip in the Himalayas. Sean shares the story of his accident, where he was forced to brake hard on the trike, causing it to flip and throwing him to the ground. The impact left him with severe pain in his shoulder and hip, making it difficult to breathe initially and leaving him unable to continue the ride. Despite his initial hope that he might recover quickly, the pain worsened, and he realized he needed to seek medical attention back in the United States. With the help of his teammates Colin and Colin's daughter, Alexis, Sean navigated the arduous journey back home, dealing with intense pain throughout. Upon arriving in the U.S., Sean visited the ER to begin his recovery process. Meanwhile, the rest of the team continued the ride, facing grueling climbs and extreme conditions. The episode highlights the resilience and determination of both Sean and the team, underscoring the physical and emotional challenges of undertaking such a demanding journey.
