One in five people in the world has some form of disability. The Paralympics had 4.25 billion viewers around the world. Yet, disability and disability sport is so under-represented in the media.

This is an edition which redresses that imbalance. It focuses on para-cycling and disability sport, putting the emphasis on what these athletes do so excellently. Disability does not define them. Disability, after all, is a social construct: we’ve been sold the lie that disability is a “Bad Thing” – and that to live with it makes you exceptional.

Issue 109 of Rouleur focuses on the enabling power of sport, telling untold stories about para-cycling and its biggest stars. We’re showing great athletes in non-stereotypical ways, exploring how cycling and society can do better to help those involved in disability sport.
