Hey. I’m David.
You might already know I’m cycling from New Zealand to Spain. The journey’s called Pedalling4Peace — it’s about raising awareness for mental health, happiness, and peace.
But this channel… it’s something else.
This is where I share the other side of the story.
Not just the roads and the rides, but the quiet in between.
The thoughts I don’t always say. The days that don’t make it into the highlight reel.
I’ve spent a lot of time fighting my own battles — mentally, emotionally. And sometimes, even in motion, I need stillness.
This vlog is that space.
It’s travel. It’s life. It’s reflection.
Sometimes there’ll be stories. Sometimes silence. Sometimes it might be messy.
But it’ll always be honest.
Thanks for being here.
If you want to follow the bigger journey, that’s over on my main channel — Pedalling4Peace.
But here… this is just me.

[Music] Hello, it’s David. Um, you might have already heard I’m cycling from New Zealand to Spain. Um, this channel is my vlog. Uh, so welcome. This is about everything in between. It’s not about the miles spent on the bike. It’s not about anything related to that, but it’s in a way it is because it’s like the the buildup or just everything in between. Like if I go on a short trip or something, um, sure. Um, I’ll take you with me on this channel. Yeah. Um, so this is um, Pedal for Peace vlogs, all the cycling stuff. And if you want to see me actually riding from New Zealand to Spain, that is over at Pedaling for Peace, you know. Um that said, um I do have a background with sort of seeking and and and reaching and I’ve always wanted to do something sort of charitable and I always thought how like in in what way will I be doing that and as you can see this is just a candid vlog. Um nothing set up. Um, so I thought, okay, I love cycling and I just I really want to sort of give this thing momentum and um, so that’s what Pedal for Peace is. This vlog is about um, everything off the bike. So, pedaling for peace though, if I can just talk about that for a second, um, is about um, raising awareness and just spreading peace and love all over the world as I cycle across it. Um, so that’s the main um, premise behind it. It’s about spreading awareness for mental health. Um, everyone, a lot of people have struggled with that in their life. And if you haven’t yourself, um, you’re lucky, but I’m sure you know people that have. Um, and so this vlog is about just everything that’s building up, the days that I think I can’t do it, the days I think I won’t do it. Um, and you know, today might have even been one of those days. So, it’ll be um just a place where I can sort of diarize and sometimes vent and sometimes, you know, just let you know some sort of side information. Um that’s where you’ll be. That’s where this this channel’s for. Um so, thank you. Um please subscribe to this channel and pedaling for peace and um I will be, you know, talking to you really soon. Okay. So thank you and welcome. [Music]
