Hope FM Radio Interview

A few weeks after returning home from the expedition I had a radio interview on the program Open House, on Hope 103.2 FM. During the interview I talked with Dwayne Jeffries about various highlights of my 43 000km journey, challenges faced along the way, as well as adjusting back to life off the saddle. The audio is played over many of my favorite images between Castleford on day one in England and Newtown on day seven hundred and ninety seven in Australia…

Cycling4Cancer Fundraiser Event – 22nd June at Barenz, Camden

Onwards to THE FINISH LINE!!!

The last week on the saddle took me from Canberra to the finish line in Camden, passing through Goulburn, Wollongong and Sydney Harbour before reaching the familiar streets of my hometown Camden. When I left Canberra I pedalled out with the scientist Richard Callaghan, who cycled with me to Lake George. By the time we said goodbye, the wind had picked up and I was blown northwards by a strong tailwind to reach the Big Marino by sunset…

Cycling4Cancer on WIN NEWS Television!

When I visited the Australian National University (ANU) in Canberra I met Richard Callaghan and his science team, who are funded by Worldwide Cancer Research (formerly AICR). This footage is taken from the evening WIN NEWS CANBERRA, covering not only my expedition (and ride through the campus), but information on cancer research in Australia. Enjoy!

The Road to Canberra

Its been an incredibly challenging ride from Albury to reach the Australian capital of Canberra. True to form, I created the most difficult route to enjoy a brutal mountainous climb before my finish line next week in Sydney. Most of you will be familiar with my usual monthly post covering thousands of kilometers at a time, but I though being so close to the finale I should share with you the this weeks gruelling ride with Wilson…

Australian National University (ANU) Video: ‘Epic Cycle for Cancer Research’

This video by the Australian National University (ANU) documents both my visit to the Canberra campus as well as the fantastic AICR funded research being conducted by Richard Callaghan and his team. Thankfully ANU’s staff are much better at video making than myself, so by watching the short video you will be able to see footage from the road while listening to both myself and Richard Callaghan. Enjoy!

Radio Interview with 666 ABC Canberra

In Canberra today I visited the ABC Studio to have an interview with Adam Shirley. It was my first ever live broadcast.

A Pedalling Voyage through Victoria

It”s now just ten or so days until I finish my charity expedition, and to say I’m nervous is a massive understatement. The constant anxiety is making sleep at best sporadic, and during the days I’m trying hard to focus on enjoying the adventures of the road. And really, its hard to imagine a better ride than in the state of Victoria…

Katherine to ‘Larry The Lobster’

It’s been a gruelling month of riding to overcome the vast distances of the Australian outback, and as I’ve dropped southwards I’ve gone from +40 degree of the dry heat of the Northern Territory to a now wet and cold Victoria. I didn’t take on the open stretches beyond Katherine, however, without making a visit to the stunning Katherine Gorge…
