Vera (60) was left for dead by a terrorist six years ago: “Fear for the rest of my life? Forget it, I won’t let myself be known” | Interior

Six years ago, Mark (61) and Vera (60) were mowed down by a terrorist on the Ramblas in Barcelona. He miraculously escaped. Her life hung by a thread. They both still bear the consequences today. But getting to know yourself is not an option. Together they cycle up the heavy mountains of the Tour de France. Although the road was – and remains – not obvious. “The first psychologist I came to literally said: ‘I don’t know what to do with you.’”
