bike touring blog: shows the daily blog links. There’s about 900 pages of blog documenting three trips.

zzOz: zig zagging eastwards back across Australia from Perth to Melbourne via various obscure Outback roads. A 17 month bike tour across the heart of Australia, later documented in zzOz zig zag across Australia.

Mundabiddi rollercoaster: A second look at the Munda Biddi Trail near Perth and some 3 dimensional huffing and puffing. A couple of hot weeks from when I lived in Perth that I wrote up in the ebook, Munda Biddi Roller Coaster.

Heading west: Melbourne to Perth is 16,731km? You betcha. Crossing the Australian continent east to west, over 15 months. My first multi-month bike tour, later documented in the ebook Heading West.
