## Resource

Adam Barker—former professional sports and lifestyle photographer, avid cyclist, and entrepreneur—joins Amanda to chat about his career behind the camera before starting Bolt Skin + Shave. We host a lot of conversations about athletes and the struggle to secure sponsors; this is a great look at the other side of the equation. Adam started Bolt to create products for men who shave their legs and has expanded from there. This is not a sponsored episode. Just a fun conversation with someone creating products for the cycling industry all on his own with insight to events, marketing, and making a name for yourself in the bike world.
