Jenson’s Journey: Where Cyclists Go for Inspiration

If you lack determination or struggle with finding enough willpower in your life, you should check out the profile of a little boy from Peterborough, England. Jenson could be, and probably is, just the man you’re looking for.

If you lack determination or struggle with finding enough willpower in your life, you should check out the profile of a little boy from Peterborough, England.

He has Cerebral Palsy that affects his right side, but is still absolutely mad for cycling and refuses to give it up. His parents embarked on a huge fundraising effort a couple of years ago and managed to get him surgery in the United States. People from all over the world chipped in and the operation changed Jenson’s life.

His journey is far from over though and the brave lad had another surgery (in the UK) just a couple of days ago. It looks like it has been another great success. The before and after pics show amazing progress. Unfortunately, the insurance is not going to cover the costs and Jenson needs some extra help from all of us.

“Hi. Can you help raise awareness and support for my lads fundraising, he is from Peterborough and is cycling mad as you will see from his video and the adaptions made to his bikes. Any donations, no matter how small, all make a difference, so if you could share it would be appreciated. We need to raise the funds for his hand/arm surgery,” says the description of the video that has been viewed over 600,000 times.
