In 2013 I cycled for our adopted Vietnamese charity, Newborn Vietnam, almost 1200km in Vietnam from Lao Cai to Da Nang, thats half way down the country.

In March 2014 Todd Gilmore and I are going to complete the 'Dragon Fruit', and cycle from the Mekong in the South up to Da Nang (thats 1100kms in 8 days) - all for the Newborn Vietnam charity.

The charity is a first in Vietnam and is bringing modern Neonatal care to premature Vietnamese babies and saving lives daily - there is no gift in the world more precious than life. Please check out their web site:

Most newborn deaths are preventable, the statistics are overwhelming and scary, every year 3.1 million babies around the world do not survive over a million die on their first day of life? 99.9% of these deaths are in poor countries.
