Australia Bike Tour Day 8: One Week Lessons

I've officially completed the first week of my bicycling journey, and I've gone from knowing next to nothing to slightly more than nothing. Today, instead of describing what it is I did or saw (pedaled and a lot of sheep), I will talk about what I've learned from being on the road with a

Australia Bike Tour Day 7: My First Flat

In typical ignorant-me fashion, I was unjustifiably cocky when I set out on this trip. "I'm not going to get any flats" I told the bike shop employee as he took all my money. "In fact, I'm going to send you my spare tubes and puncture repair kit when I finish my ride." Things never change;

Australia Bike Tour Day 6: Big Stupid Things

Having spent an entire day confined in bed, I feel that I'm ready to continue my ride across the Australia. My knee still doesn't seem to quite agree, but that's something I'll just ignore until it becomes a serious medical issue (probably exactly what a doctor would recommend I

Australia Bike Tour Day 5: Ararat

Last night I treated myself to an evening of knee icing in the Ararat Central Motel. After a day of doing nothing, tonight is more of the same. However, this does not mean my nights have been without their excitement. On my way back from picking up ice from the gas station across the street

Australia Bike Tour Day 4: This Knee

After three days of riding, I wake up 137 mi / 220 km from my origin - Melbourne, Victoria (Victoria, by the way, is a state in Australia since I am certain that some of you do not know this). I'm not sure whether this would be considered a "good pace", but I'm happy with it. Something I'm not

Australia Bike Tour Day 3: Anzac Day

Today is Anzac Day in Australia which means a couple of things according to my understanding: It's a national holiday. A gambling game called two-up is temporarily legalized (sadly, I did not play this). Restaurants and the like increase their prices to cover the cost of having to pay

Australia Bike Tour Day 2: Why Google Maps!?

My first morning waking up on the road and I am blessed with not only sore legs but a throbbing knee as well. Ten seconds on the bike confirms it - my knee is going to be a huge problem on this trip. Probably should have done some training before attempting this. Oh well, too late

Australia Bike Tour Day 1: Getting Shit On

I have successfully completed day one of my Australian bicycle touring extravaganza, and I've already learned a lot. For example: Cyclists wear those silly little hats under their helmets to protect from bird shit (yes, a bird shit on me through my helmet today). Google Maps bicycle

Outback Bike Touring Questions

Once again, I've decided to do something based solely on the premise of "this sounds cool," and I have been unable to find answers to a lot of the questions I have about my upcoming adventure (although I am sure that if I devoted more time to searching and less time to writing about how I can't find
