People have asked us, and we have asked Luo Papa ourselves, “Why did he want to go on this journey?”
And everyday, we understood a little more.
“这段逐梦的过程 (This journey to fulfill his (Luo Papa’s) dream)
让他走过以前的岁月 (Has let him retrace his life at the railway)
找回美好的记忆 (Has helped him find those lost memories)”

This isn’t merely a trip to cycle around Taiwan’s railway tracks
This isn’t just about standing in front of each station and taking photos
This is about chasing dreams
This is about tracing footprints
This is about capturing memories
Because of Luo Papa’s eagerness everytime he zooms off in front of us, towards the next station
Because of laughter in the air everytime he catches up on old times with his ex-colleagues
Because of Luo Papa’s joy everytime we take a photo at a train station
This bicycle journey has meaning
Our traffic frustrations, road nuances etc. has meaning
Each train station, has a meaning
Each photo taken, has a meaning
Each pedal forward, has a meaning
“Sometimes, we forget why we are doing this in the first place. In life, this happens. We become so engrossed in the happenings around us, we forgot why we were there, doing what we were doing in the first place. This journey with Luo Papa has given a me gift – a reminder to remember, the meaning behind each journey.” – Val
