Who is Josh? Josh is a very interesting bloke. An army veteran who has overcome some pretty difficult and impressive challenges. A triple amputee due to an IED explosion in Afghanistan, Josh is an accomplished adventurer and qualified SCUBA rescue diver (yes, qualified after the accident) and also a prolific cyclist (using his arms). Just before the photo shoot for his label, he was involved in a massive bike accident in Mallorca. He went under a lorry when his wheel blew out at 25mph. This almost killed him, but he still made it to Renegade for a few photos and some vino!
