Story

** UPCOMING TALK 18th DECEMBER AT GIANT CYCLES SHEFFIELD. TICKETS: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-reyt-long-road-tales-and-lessons-from-an-intercontinental-tickets-83148953759 **


On the 2nd January 2019 I arrived fresh faced in Singapore with a bike and a tent in a box. There were 2 continents that separated me from my hometown Sheffield. The next turbulent 10 months saw me traverse 26,000km through 25 countries, including contentious areas of Myanmar, the post Orwellian dystopian future region of Xinjiang, the Pamir mountains of Tajikistan and Chesterfield high street. 

Now the cycling has finished (for now) but the adventure continues. 

I am still aiming to reach my £5000 target for Newlife in the afterglow of life on the road - and you can help. 

You can donate any amount, no matter how small - from a hypothetical pint to a hypothetical house - to my fundraiser by clicking DONATE.
