Indirect Advantages

Most of the joys of cycling around the world have nothing to do with cycling, but cycling acts as the means to them. My last few days in New Zealand are a case in point to this.

Type Two Fun

The difficulties of getting off the beaten track, if you’re somewhat on the lazy side, are of course what you encounter while you’re having ‘type two fun’, but also are found in the process of getting off the track in the first place. Here’s me on my first time doing what my ‘bikepacking’ setup has allowed me to do: push my bike a lot and love it

The Last Leg

The final few hundred Kilometres in the mountains of Australia. Melbourne to Sydney.

The Decompression Chamber

Riding around Tasmania when I should have been looking for a job.

The Land of Plenty

A bike ride through bustling civilisation, and an encounter with a spider. Hawker to Melbourne, Australia.

Going, Going, Ghan

Tales form cycling the Oodnatatta track. Coober Pedy to Hawker, Australia.

The Red Centre

After weeks of cycling through nothing, here’s me being overwhelmed by rocks. Alice Springs to Yulara, Australia.

Twelve Days’ Ride Beyond the Middle of Nowhere

Crossing the Tanami Desert on a very heavy bicycle. Halls Creek to Alice Springs, Australia.

Nothing But Cows and Dirt

Cycling the Buntine Highway. Katherine to Halls Creek, Australia.

Fresh off the boat and back on the bike
