Hi, I'm Dave. I'm a self-propelled record-breaking adventurer, motivational speaker, author, maker of little films and founder of SayYesMore; a social enterprise that nudges people towards finding out what they're really capable of.

CURRENT ADVENTURE

I'm currently making my way around the endlessly picturesque coastline of Norway, lapping up the water miles on the 14th leg of Expedition1000. I'm travelling on a pedal-powered Schiller Bike for around 1500 miles between Kirkenes and Bergen, a route known as the Hurtigruten.

The Hurtigruten route between Kirkenes and Bergen has been running since 1893 and is known as the World's Most Beautiful Voyage, the perfect setting for a challenging world record distance attempt by bike on water.

I hope this journey encourages you to adventure, and perhaps even visit Norway one day. You can follow the whole thing right here on these pages.

ADVENTURE

E XPEDITION1000

Twenty-five different journeys, each over 1000 miles, each using a different form of non-motorised transport. This is the project that keeps me adventuring and gives me some identity in a crazy world.
