Because cycling is not just what we see on race day. It is the quiet moments, the unseen struggles, the human dynamics that rarely make it into highlights.
We talk about how he found his way into storytelling, the creation of Nafent, and why places like Girona have become cultural hubs for riders and creatives alike.
This is a conversation about perspective. About what we choose to show. And about the moments that define the sport, even when no one is watching.
