Across a jet-setting, decades-long career setting iron ore pricing for Rio Tinto, Mark Berridge faced lots of challenges. But it was a weekend bike ride with mates much closer to home that changed his life forever.

“I never, ever expected to hear the word spinal cord injury.”

Mark had to adapt to the unexpected, learning to walk again one step at a time. So he applied his business nous to his recovery, transforming each rehab problem into a chance to do learn something new.

“I remember thinking, ‘how blessed am I to be out here riding underneath the trees’. I remember feeling how lovely it was. Then I remember we started coasting downhill. Not long after that, things changed dramatically.”

Mark Berridge’s book is A Fraction Stronger.
