Hey all,
Any you thought we were so hard for doing the Dun Run fixed...

The link above is for the facebook page that is for Fixing Austraila: For those of you who did the dunwich with me, imagine how hard doing this is for Ross...

2008- The Journey Continues:
Fixin Australia one man's unsupported ride through the middle of the continent. As if 5000 kms and inhospitable climate were not challenge enough, Ross has raised the bar. Fixin Australia will see him complete the journey in 60 to 90 days, with only the bare essentials. One bag. Brakeless. Fixed.

About Ross:
Ross Sherlock is Irish, currently living in the UK. A software engineer by qualification but a gadabout at heart, with a photographer’s eye and legs for the road. Inspired by Irish hard men like Sean Kelly and Stephen Roche, from an early age he developed a passion for cycling. Finding competition racing unfulfilling; he started contemplating a much larger challenge: Australia.

In 2006 Ross quit his job and got on a plane.
The journey took 137 days, covered 17876 km and was completely unsupported. True to his nature, he faithfully chronicled it all on his website.

July 24 (part 2)
Ross has landed.. in Alice Springs:
"So tired, this is unbelievably hard work, I've had 2 weeks of 40km/h winds in my face and no get out of jail gears. Knees are sore and legs need a few days off - which gives me time to write my product reviews ;) ps..Absolutely love the stowaway jacket! It's proving to be essential.
