Bicycle: Trek 29 inch hard back mountain bike
Where: Munda Biddi Track (Albany to Perth)
When, how long and how far: From 2013 to May 2016 in numerous one to four day sections, approx. 3 weeks and 1000km in total
Comments: Started by doing short sections between Collie and Nannup in 2013 with the new bicycle, and then expanded south and north to Albany and Mundaring to finally complete the track from end to end in 2016. Mostly cycled solo, using public transport for logistics, and staying in shelters along the way. The times of the year were spring and autumn.
