ABC Buildings hosts Jaco Van Gass OBE as part of international national bike week 2025 to speak about his passion for cycling and his book “Unequivocal”
The event is hosted in partnership with Yelo Bike Club
Jaco won two gold medals and one bronze medal at the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games. He is a three times world record holder in Track cycling.
After getting injured and reaching some incredible goals, Jaco has been invited to speak all over the UK and South Africa, at schools, universities and businesses, sharing his story. Jaco's presentation encompasses physical hardship, smashing world records and the ability to change. His message is one begotten of terrible circumstances, however, audiences will be attracted and motivated by Jaco's charm, humour and determination. Jaco tells his story with stories from real life adventures which he instigated due to his injuries and experience. This is a presentation not to be missed.
Jaco is witty and determined and this shines through in the passion he injects into his presentations. He is engaging and has a real drive for others to take the opportunities that he has taken in order for them to improve their lives, both in and out of the workplace.
He is an awe-inspiring public speaker – his politeness, and charisma make him both memorable and entertaining, his ability to mix humour in with the intense drama and seriousness of his personal experiences manages to set audiences at ease whilst simultaneously inspiring them.
