Last year Jack and his father (Brendon) cycled across Australia – 4500 km in 30 days. On completing the ride Jack became the youngest person ever to cycle across Australia from Perth on the west coast to The Gold Coast on the east coast.

To complete the trip Jack and Brendon had a support crew with two vehicles. They slept in a Camper Trailer or tent and all cooking was done from the small fold out “kitchen” at the back of the Camper Trailer that consisted of a bench and gas hot plate.
Camping was either in official caravan parks or bush camping. The most enjoyable camping was the bush camping where there were no facilities at all. Collecting wood for a fire, cooking dinner over the fire and then sitting around the fire as the sun goes down is what camping is all about.
