HISTORY
Team Dai began in 2008 as the brain-child of Bruce Knox, Sophie Donnelly and Ginny Coleman, three expatriates living and working in Vientiane who loved cycling and loved Laos.
In wanting to combine their love of cycling and their desire to support the people of Laos, Team Dai was born. Since 2008, Team Dai has ridden well over 6000km and has raised more than $200,000 in support of Lao Organisations supporting Lao people. The annual Challenges are listed below:
