Rudy Pospisil Rides the World
Aussie is done ...
One man’s journey to inspire and share his story across 30 countries. Follow this incredible challenge as Rudy Pospisil cycles for Cancer Research…
“If you ever cycle across Australia: Be warned south of Brisbane along the coast, the flies and bugs are relentless. Worse than Burma or Thailand where the mosquitoes carried Dengue and Malaria. They need protein to breed. They get protein from your tears, saliva, the mucus in your nose — and from blood, if you have any fresh cuts. – I rigged up a cool face bug net after swallowing several flies and one stuck way up my sinus. I think they breed on the cow dung and kangaroo carcasses that litter the roadways in many areas. I minimum speed of 15-20 MPH outruns them a real motivator to keep going. Cycling around the earth for cancer charity, feel free to friend me Rudy Pospisil“
