Wired For Adventure Volume 13

“I refuse to let what happened in my past completely control my future.”

– Vanessa Ruck, Adventurer and WFA Cover Star

Kitesurfing, rock climbing, wakeboarding, scuba diving… Vanessa Ruck has done them all. From throwing herself out of aeroplanes, to spear fishing on remote islands, if ever anyone was Wired For Adventure, it’s Vanessa. So, when a bicycle accident on her daily commute threatened to rob her of the adventurous life she loved, Vanessa refused to take it lying down. Instead, she dusted herself off, put herself back together – and then she upped the ante.

In Volume 13 of Wired For Adventure magazine, read our interview with Vanessa and discover how she overcame seven reconstructive surgeries to take on some of the toughest endurance races in the world. Braving gnarly forest trails, scorching desert dunes, and impossible mountain ascents, she’s facing recovery head-on, one death-defying ride at a time. This is the incredible story of The Girl on a Bike.
