Biking in Southern Australia

My neighbour Art Brown is about halfway through his 122-day biking adventure in southern Australia.

An article I wrote about his journey was recently published in The Metro and I thought you might enjoy reading his story. You can also follow Art’s daily travels by reading his blog, which is packed with fabulous photos of people and places.
