Ben Felten

Professional Motorsport Athlete | Fastest Blind Motorcycle Rider On Earth | World Record Holder | Keynote Speaker | Director of Blind Speed & In Sight of Dreams

Ben is an Australian-based motorsport athlete, speaker and inclusivity thought leader, globally renowned for positively impacting perceptions and beliefs about what the human spirit is truly capable of.


In March 2018, Ben set a new World Record as The Fastest Blind Man on a Motorcycle, clocking an earth-shattering speed of 266.716 km/h. But to Ben, it was more than just breaking a record, it was about breaking down barriers.


After being born fully sighted, Ben was diagnosed with a degenerative eye disease in his teens and went completely blind in his late 30's.


Although he lost his sight, he never lost his vision. Ben went on to be a part of the World Cup winning teams for blind cricket and para rowing, he founded his own charity, In Sight Of Dreams, and built his company, Blind Speed.


Ben's inspiring story has seen him feature on primetime television, radio, podcasts, and even in his own documentary film, Dark Rider. He has spoken on stages around the country and is able to deeply connect with his audience, whether they be kindergarten students or C-level executives.
