“I have not spoken with my family in a long time because they see me as a disappointment and a failure, so no member of my family want to see me or speak to me anymore, but I am not moved,” Mr. Dickspooner retorted today while speaking with Niyi Babade in Bradford UK.
The 59 year old British man from York has been cycling around the United Kingdom with his old mountain bike for several days. Some of the items strapped to the old mountain bike include sleeping bag, tent, rain coat, food items, coffee, cooking materials, few clothing items,power bank with which he charges his phone as he travels.
Apart from the tattoos that adorned some part of his body, another noticeable on his two legs was different scars which he claimed he got from some of the rough terrain he rode through in the course of his journey.
“I don’t drink alcohol, so I can maintain my sanity at all times” Dickspooner further said. He started his expedition since the end of winter, a journey that has taken him to almost 25 cities out of the 55 official cities in England.
Good luck and safe travels to Mr. Dickspooner as he cycles.
