PASSIONATE ABOUT INSPIRING OTHERS

“My relationship with epilepsy and cycling has been problematic.”

Chris Winwood

Diagnosed at 21, Chris is a person living with epilepsy. Currently living in Prince George, BC, Chris lives with various types of seizures. However, that does not stop him from riding his bike through any city, weather or terrain.

“I experienced several seizures, the first of which was on my mountain bike.”

-Chris Winwood

Chris’ first seizure on his bike prompted his search for more answers while he continued to ride his bike as a form of therapy and independence. His search led him to the BC Epilepsy Society who he has now partnered with to host a fundraiser where he will cycle across provinces to raise funds for people living with epilepsy in the North and their families.
