    In August 2016 Grant Lottering became the first cyclist to complete a solo, non-stop, 1 000km attempt through the French Alps in less than 47 hours while raising over R1.2m for charity.

    Yet, only 3 years ago he died in a harrowing cycling accident in the Italian Alps, shattering his body against a rock embankment at over 60kms an hour. He was told cycling again would be impossible.

    Astonishingly, within one year and six surgeries later, he returned to the Alps and finished the 140km Alpine race that nearly claimed his life. This was his first Impossible Tour.

    How did he go from death, no less than seven surgeries and over 100 rehabilitation sessions, to conquering the Alps and breaking records in such a short period of time?

    This is the astonishing story of miracle cyclist, Laureus Sport for Good Ambassador and international speaker, Grant Lottering, who through hope, courage and perseverance, overcame the impossible, and continues to inspire thousands all over the world.

    Grant Lottering – Speaker

    Grant has, since his accident, gone on to inspire thousands of people, addressing audiences across the globe, including South Africa, Germany, Zambia, England, the Netherlands, and Belgium. His own life story and experiences inspire others to re-evaluate their goals and lives. Despite Lottering’s amazing achievements, he stays a genuine, humble, authentic person.

    • "Vanessa and I have had the privilege of listening to Grant’s story and life experiences at a talk on Friday. Grant’s story talks specifically to Johan’s message of “ tough times don’t last but tough people do”! The synergies and comparisons between his struggles and where we are unbelievably close. I do not normally recommend guest speakers because I often believe that the message we receive is personal and does differ from person to person. Having listen to Grant and his amazing recollections of the miracle he lives, his drive and determination to achieve his objective despite the physical and mental agony, I am personally of the belief that my colleagues should all be able to hear this wonderful story of what can be achieved with faith and determination. Please see Grant’s mail below and make contact with him should you require a really world class speaker. Challenge launch might present a wonderful opportunity."
