I've quit my job and am riding a Vespa scooter and sidecar from London to Rio to follow England in the World Cup in aid of UNICEF. I love football, motorbiking, going on holiday and supporting a good cause. Playing, watching or talking football, biking and holidays, essentially it all brings people together. I wanted to take it a step further with my Vespa, football and replica WorldCup.
The goal is to ride in as many countries as possible who have qualified for the World Cup. Bearing in mind England’s poor penalty record I decided to have a penalty shootout with locals and use my scooter as a goalpost.
