Bevan, Bon Rouleur
22 July 2005 | Perth, Western Australia
After 30-something hours of travel, I finally arrived in Perth. As planned, I met Alex at the City Hall, and we dragged all my stuff to the hostel. During the walk I begin to realize how much stuff I've brought; my gear is extremely heavy. Everything must be at least 120 pounds. Uh oh. I have to carry this stuff really really far...
Perth appears to be a cool city, and food is really cheap so we eat a ton. We stayed at the Billabong Resort (a hostel), where we've rented a 4-bunk room, so we have room to build our bikes and organize our gear.
About my traveling companion for Australia:
Alex and I have been friends for over a decade; we've been going to school together since we were four. We started at the East Bay French American School, then at the College Preparatory School of Oakland. We both got into cycling in high school; we should be a great team.
