The founder of a cycling drum and bass event coming to Dublin this weekend believes the event has helped those suffering depression and others hit by inflation.
Dom Whiting, 26, from Buckinghamshire in England, started Drum and Bass on The Bike, in 2021 during lockdown. The performance artist said that as well as the free event being good for physical and mental health, he feels the “collective” gathering is the perfect fun for anyone hit by inflation.
He said: “What motivates me is people turning up to be part of something together. It’s a breakaway from daily life. People are living through a financial crisis and they come to this to have fun and it’s free.
