We’ve often heard the phrase ‘get on your bike’ – and in Manchester, one group has taken it literally!

‘Pride Out’ is Manchester’s first LGBT+ cycling group – and is already going from strength to strength.

Richard Hearne is the man behind it - and has joined us for a brand-new episode of the podcast to talk about everything to do with the group. From how it came about to the importance of having inclusive spaces in sport, this is a fascinating conversation - including a segment on the concept of 'self censorship' that lots of LGBTQ+ people will be able to relate to.

And just one more thing - if Richard comes up to you in the supermarket, it might be a good idea to hold onto your rice. Trust us, that'll make sense after you listen!
