Currently on a warpath with Australia.
Raced the IPWR from Perth to Sydney. 5500km in 3 weeks. Took a week break then continued up to Brisbane - another 1000km. Another week break and now I’m racing myself to Cairns. Almost another 2000km on top.
My Friday-Saturday ride was a 36-hour effort (a single 1-hour nap) smashing out 575km Brisbane to Agnes Water, where I then instantly conked out at a dot-watchers house.
Currently, 100km deep into the Sunday effort - which looks like might be an all-nighter.
I have a flight booked from Cairns that takes off in just over a week exactly. 1200km to go...
And, yes, everything you just read - on a Dolan FXE with fixed cogs ONLY.
