In this episode of the Ride To Success Podcast, host Pedro Couto Lopes sits down with Rainier (aka Avocado Cyclist) — a London-based content creator, cyclist, and brand ambassador — to uncover the story behind his journey.

From running a business that pushed him into burnout to finding freedom, confidence, and purpose through cycling, Rainier shares how the bike became more than just a hobby — it became his escape, his therapy, and ultimately his purpose.

They dive into:

• How Rainier (Avocado Cyclist) discovered cycling and why it changed his life

• The mental health impact of cycling and overcoming burnout

• Building a cycling community rooted in inclusivity and culture

• His journey into content creation and working with cycling brands

• Why cycling should be accessible to everyone — regardless of background or ability

• His mission to bring awareness to the Asian cycling community

This conversation is a powerful reminder that success isn’t always about numbers — sometimes it’s about rediscovering who you are.

“I lost who I was in a way… it made me refind myself in a way of who I really am.”

If you’re passionate about cycling, entrepreneurship, creativity, or personal growth, this episode will inspire you to rethink what success really means.
