Guests: Omar Di Felice; Andrew “Bernie” Bernstein
Ultraman cycling might not say it all when it comes to Omar Di Felice.
Omar loves extremes – extreme cold, extreme distances, extremes heights – and is a full-time endurance cyclist.
Omar is from Lazio, Italy, right outside of Rome and with more than 70,000 social media followers, is one of the most interesting people I’ve spoken with a long time.
On October 22nd, Roleur online published an interview with Omar Di Felice and I found what he had to say fascinating!
Back in March, Omar had cycled to Mt. Everest Base Camp – a mere 5,364 meters! 17,598 feet – in winter after crossing the entire Himalayan region without any support.
Who IS this man I wanted to know… and, so today you too will learn how Omar does it, why he does it, and what he wants people to know about his “job” as he calls it.

Starting back in the late 70’s Cathy Rogers – nee Schnaubel (and THAT should ring a bell with some old timers like me) couldn’t find a cycling short for women, taught herself to sew. Others saw the shorts, wanted a pair or two, and voila! Schaubel was born.
