Leandro documented his DIY project for the Red Bull tandem bike race on Instagram. In this episode, Derek and Leandro explore the idea of taking on such challenges for the joy of it.
Leandro shares the wild story behind building a giant eagle-topped tandem bike for Red Bull’s Chicago spin-off race—and why the real victory was showing up, getting featured, and proving that creativity does not have to be productive to matter.
From Leandro’s soapbox race a year ago to diving into Lake Michigan—the DIY project became a showcase for creating something that brings joy to others while surrounding yourself with supportive friends and family. Not bad for a daredevil.
