Western Australia March 2020 So it’s been a while since my last blog when I’d just finished cycling the Munda Biddi trail in Western Australia. As I left off it was mid March and I was just about to head out to cycle across the mighty Nullabor desert.

Australia 8 Feb 2020 Perth Intl Airport to Camillo 35km My flight arrives in to Perth from Bali to a very quiet airport. I pick up my luggage and the bike box and head outside.

An hour later the…

Wednesday 21st June – Nukus to Chilpyk (Bashnya Molchaniya) Distance: 54.99 km Total Distance: 14089.97 km This morning my Va-va-vroom just ain’t there.

Few Museums in the Republic of Uzbekistan can boast of such a…
