Pugwash riding the 5,475 km Indian Pacific Wheel Ride

My friend Pugwash is riding the 2023 Indian Pacific Wheel Ride -  5,475 km from Freemantle to the Sydney Opera House.

He's very determined and enjoys a challenge - which he is certainly getting.   He is averaging 200-250 km per day.

Riders are unsupported and carry a tracking device - signals for trackers can be viewed on a map here.

I met Tim on the route along the Great Ocean Road - here's a video.


Some friends and "dot-watchers" also rode with him for a short distance from Kew Boulevard and along the Yarra Trail and Koonung Trails.


After an alpine start on the final morning Pugwash completed the ride on 10 April 2023 at 4:44 pm after riding a total distance of 5,469 km in 24 days.

An epic journey nearly completed!

Last day, riding through Royal National Park






Congratulations TJ!
