Outbike - Beyond the beyond Outbike started in June 2004 with the ‘out-there’ idea of a 900 km ride from Alice Springs to Coober Pedy, following a string of remote trails through the Simpson Desert and far north of South Australia. Building on two successful rides in 2004, the 2005 programme offered three more of the same and introduced a new event, The Bike ‘n Wheels Expedition, taking 30 days to cross Australia from Port Augusta to Karumba (in the direction of 19th century explorers Burke and Wills). in Fitness > Biking > Rideswith australiabigcyclecyclingdistancefitnesskeenriderural
