    Back in the day, I spent 6 months bicycle touring in Australia (2 months in New Zealand and two weeks each in Tahiti and Fuji, also for a total of 9 months out), and I have to say, it was the best bicycle tour I have every done and I've toured over 30,000 miles all tolled over the years. For a North American, it was a real eye opener with new plants and animals to experience every day and the Australians were very welcoming. I used a mth bike because most of the outback roads are gravel. I'm old now (73), but your video makes me want to go back for another ride. I admire your grit to take on the Outback, it can be very intimidating.

    🇦🇺 Congratulations guys on your really interesting video of WA, and especially the amazing tracking you did. I'm a born and bred Aussie from Melbourne who in his 53 yrs have travelled around our beautiful country but must admit, have yet to properly explore WA. You've certainly given me new inspiration. Again, well done on the quality of your editing, the music, scenery and most of all your incredibly good spirit throughout. Keep up the good good work 👍

    Mullewa to Mt Augustus & Coral Bay by bicycle ! Legends! That's most of the Wool Wagon Pathway. If you visited the museum at Murchison township you would see photos of the Men who worked on sheep shearing teams and cycled through the area during the shearing season, approx 120 years ago. We have travelled extensively through that region, we love it. Well done.

    Simply amazing. What a show case of WA and what an amazing documentary in every way possible. Your whole journey is possibly the best thing I've ever seen. I'm so glad you made it safely though the outback, I was a bit worried about you when you said that was what you were doing. There is a good reason why random people just stop and give you water, because people die out there. Really really well done and all the best for the rest of your trip. Stay safe.
