About this blog

This is a cycling adventure of 4,053 kms across Australia from Perth to Sydney in 34 days. I am part of a group of 25 people on road bikes, including my good mate Mark (Marcus Maximus), which is riding up to 192 kms per day over flat to mountainous terrain across our great nation.

The purpose of the trip is to raise over $140,000 for Bible Society projects in Australia under the banner of "Bike for Bibles", with the beneficiaries being Aboriginal people in the north of Australia.
