Take a ride with David as he shares what he's learned on the road, in the classroom, and during his rehabilitation, as well as the little things that make this trip so memorable. There are genuine, honest, and heartfelt things here, from bike suggestions to student shoutouts
David's voyage has effects that go well beyond the distances. His narrative has given others bravery, optimism, and a fresh faith in second chances, from classrooms to hospital rooms. What they are saying is this:
"David's ride isn't just a journey, it's a message, one of courage, faith, and not giving up on life even when it knocks you down."
"He doesn't just sub in our classrooms. He shows up with heart, hope, and a story that sticks."
"I've never seen someone come back like that. He's not just a survivor, he's a force of nature."
