Episode Replay: S3 E19 - How to Build a more Inclusive Cycling Team with Casper Wong
We're getting closer to season 6 of The Inspire podcast! While the countdown continues, we're bringing you standout episodes from our archives. Stay tuned for more as we continue to countdown to the new season!
In this episode Bart speaks with Casper Wong about his journey to create the United Nation of Cyclists, a race team whose mission it is to promote diversity and inclusion. Casper, whose day job is CEO and Co-Founder of Financeit, came to cycling late in life but quickly caught a passion for the sport. In his interview with Bart, he shared his personal experience of loving the sport but feeling like its homogeneity made it hard to feel included and at home. He connected with others who felt the same, and the result was their organic creation of a race team that today is taking an active role in promoting equity in the sport while giving back. Casper's experience and UNC's rapid growth highlights the underlying demand for change in cycling and shows that this sport does not need a one size fits all approach.
