Our friends over at the Choco Latte café, shared a remarkable story of a gentleman who is taking a journey across the country. He started in Washington DC and he’s heading to Canada by bicycle! What was supposed to be an adventure with a friend has turned into a tribute and way to honor that friends memory. Click on their page for the whole story….

You guys, I LOVE our cafe. Ive heard/seen so many wonderful stories but this one took my breath away. What an amazing soul right here!
This young gentleman found his way to Choco-Latte Cafe on his BICYCLE all the way from Washington DC!!!! Yes! Washington DC!!!
Help me send Tae all the good energy we have so that he completes his journey safely. He now continues to Martha's Vineyard and from there all the way to Canada 🇨🇦, again ON A BICYCLE!!! I cant even imagine the type of heart and dedication it takes to endure this type of a trip. God bless him on his journey.

Tae had planned this bike trip with his friend (who unfortunately passed away) and he decided to continue the planned trip ALONE in honor of his friend! What an amazing friend to have right here. 🤯🤯🤯 He embarked on this trip in the month of July from Washington DC and now today made it to our little cafe in Fall River MA. ALL WHILE NOT TAKING A SINGLE DAY OFF FROM WORK!!. Unreal and unheard of. Stopping in at air bnb's throughout and mom and pop cafes like ours along the way and working during the week. He tries to travel on average 80-100 miles a day on the weekends. ❤️❤️🙏🏼❤️❤️
God speed and safe travels my friend. Im so glad i was able to be a part of your journey. Im truly blown away.
