We discuss with Mike, from experiences as a rider and Auckland event host, the origins of the DGR from 2012 and how the ride has grown to 120,000 riders globally, raising almost 7 million US dollars.
We also discuss what motivates so many people to support this ride and his personal motivation to participate.
