The Trustees of Bikes4Mission are passionate followers of Jesus with decades of combined experience in international mission. Since September 2021  we have met weekly to pray, seek God, and grow together. Bikes4Mission is one of the fruits of those precious times. We are all grandparents, and we all call Carmarthenshire, Wales, home.
