There were so many friends who laughed when they heard about the bamboo bike idea. Some people will definitely discourage you, but one thing I've realised in life is that you have to be focused. People never understand your journey because it is not theirs to understand.

Draw inspiration and courage from you own dreams and passions and never slack on them.

You have to believe so strongly in what you are doing, to be so dedicated to it that you are willing to make the necessary sacrifices.
