Diagnosed in 2016, Ryd Withoutstomach underwent a full stomach removal, chemotherapy, and battled pneumonia. Just weeks after treatment, he was back on the bike, determined to reclaim his life.⁠

In 2020, he completed a full vEveresting and fulfilled his dream of climbing Pico Veleta, the highest mountain in mainland Europe. “If you ask what Everesting means to me, I’d say: it’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done and I think only a handful of people really understand,” he says.⁠

“Every painful kilometer was celebrated,” he adds, living by the motto: Expand your limits by crossing them.⁠
