Ibon Zugasti: la pasión ciclista de YouTube en la Cape Epic
Para algunos será un completo desconocido, pero muchos otros le reconocerán rápidamente como el youtuber e influencer de ciclismo número uno en España. Hablamos de Ibon Zugasti (País Vasco, 49 años), un diseñador gráfico que dio un giro radical a su vida para dedicarse en cuerpo y alma a su gran pasión: la bicicleta. El de Lezo, después de compaginar durante años su profesión con las dos ruedas, lo dejó todo para dedicarse al ciclismo con más de 30 primaveras. «Nunca me planteé ser profesional, pero llegué a un punto en el que me di cuenta de que me gustaba más la bici que el trabajo, después de estar diez o doce años compaginándolos y durmiendo cuatro o cinco horas al día. Con 32 años le dije a mi jefa que quería ser ciclista y me pegué dos años sabáticos. En mi casa nadie entendía nada, fue un drama. Pasé de ser un yupi a un desgraciado. Mi vida cambió y empecé a ser feliz como ciclista», explica Ibon a AS sobre sus primeras experiencias en este deporte.
