This one’s for the mad cyclists out there: How about riding from Sydney to Perth? (For comparison, say from Atlanta to L.A.)
Important Note
This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.

except it’s about 300 miles further
Well, I didn’t say it was an *exact* comparison…
Crazy… there was a story in our local paper a few months ago about some cross-country cycling race in the US and how many people die in the process. Basically, riders get so tired they start driving into oncoming traffic or off the road. Bonkers is right! (Perth is one of two places I’ve been in Oz, by the way; it’s very nice).
wow. that makes my 182 mile 2 day journey from houston to austin look soooooo pathetically pale in comparison!
