He has cycled 520,000 kilometres through 143 countries and still rides everyday. Over his four decades crisscrossing the world he has sat next to Bob Marley on a plane, been hit by a bus in India and held at gunpoint in Iran. He met his wife while cycling in the Sahara Desert. The couple have settled in Cairns, Far North Queensland, and are waiting for the borders to reopen so they can keep travelling. Join the ABC Australia community on social media!
