An inspiring journey and story, we look forward to welcoming you to join Cyclox and ERS’s own Iraj Maghounaki free ZOOM Event on The Journey of a Lifetime!
In August 2021, Iraj Maghounaki set out on a 6,500km (4,000+ mile) bike ride from Oxford to the capital of Iran.
Passing through 12 countries over 65 days, Iraj travelled alone for long periods and was entirely self-sufficient throughout the journey. As you can imagine, he had to deal with all sorts of unpredictable situations and he has many heart-warming stories about the kindness of strangers.
Iraj raised over £12,500 for Oxfordshire Mind. You can make a donation via his Just Giving page.
“Cycling has helped me with my mental health journey. When I ride, I feel as free as a bird and my mind is calmer and more focused.”
