UK - Hooray for the heroic adventure. It's exactly what Kevin and Lowanna have embarked on, a 10,000 mile journey from England to Australia by bicycle.

The best part is that they are video blogging their story from the roads, deserts, and woodlands and mountains of UK, Europe, Pakistan, India, Iran, Malaysia and finally Australia.

Part of the reason for this epic journey is to raise attention to global warming and over dependence on fossil fuels. Find out more at www.bike2oz.com.
