Cycling Through Grit: Reflections on Return of the King’

I just watched, while cycling on the trainer in the gym, Return of the King, the full 2024 season, a documentary series about Ted King.

Ted King used to be a professional cyclist, who last rode for the Cannondale-Garmin ProTeam in 2006. Fast forward a few years, a family with two kids, and other responsibilities. The series documents his journey as a gravel racer.

It’s a simple yet powerful story about the toughness of cycling and the determination it takes. Watching it was a great reminder that success isn’t just about winning, but about the journey and the grit. If you’re into cycling, this one’s worth a watch.
