From Bike Workshop to Vietnam: Daniel's cycling story.

We spoke to Daniel who is currently Solo Cycling through Vietnam on a bike purchased at the Julian House Bike Workshop. On this journey he is cycling 2700 miles +150,000ft Elevation over the course of 60 days!

This trip to Vietnam comes after recently cycling the 3300 miles between Melbourne to Cairns Australia in 82 days.

🚴Why did you choose to cycle for Julian House?

A very fitting charity. I bought a bike at the Bike Workshop, that kept me in employment as it was my transport for January through May! It was cold to begin with. Then God gave me the idea of Australia. I went to Bath met David and the rest is history! I was trying to get involved with some charities, nothing was really happening so best to get out there and just try! Keeping my job through cycling, seeing the work you do and how the Lord has worked in my life, it all fitted together.

🚴Where did you hear of Julian House originally?

I bought a bike at the Bike Workshop for £250; tried for a week then gave it back to them. I couldn't ride it. The Lord God walked and walked me, then when I had lost quite a lot of weight, I bought another bike in the shop which is what I am using now.

🚴Are you riding the bike that you purchased from our workshop?

Absolutely, wouldn't use another!
