Quicky: Tracking Clea and Garrett’s trip across Australia

Tuesday, March 31st, 2009

A couple of weeks ago I posted an entry about a work colleague and her husband’s attempt to cycle across Australia from Sydney to Perth. Well, they’re doing well despite having to take a day off for a rest and recouperation break and should be half way cross South Australia by now. They’re updating their blog – Clea and Garrett Cycle Across Australia, as frequently as possible so I encourage you to check back on it regularly.

One thing I found with reading the blog is that while I know the distance is enormous it’s hard to really get the sense of scale just from reading it so I decided to plot their journey on a map with links back to each of the blog posts. So without further ado here’s the map at 1:1 billion scale.

Quicky: Cycling across Australia

Monday, March 16th, 2009

A good work mate of mine and her husband are cycling across the Nullabor over the next few weeks. I say they’re crazy but it should be a good one to follow.

So without further adieu I present – Clea and Garrett Cycle Across Australia.

BTW: Did I mention it’s actually a tandem bike they’re riding?
