“Great Southern Land” – across the outback by bicycle
Out now on eBook. Paperback and Audiobook coming shortly.
This book is about the journey I took after moving to Australia – I decided to leave Sydney and go cycling across the outback in the top-end. Probably not the smartest thing I ever did, but I survived to tell the tale.
Here is an excerpt from the journal I kept during that trip. I’d just got out The Ghan at Katherine and was prep

“According to a certain person, a number of years ago, the late Matsuguma Kyōan told this story:
“In the practice of medicine there is a different treatment according to the Yin and Yang of men and women. There is also a difference in pulse. In the last fifty years, however, men’s pulse has become the same as women’s. Noticing this, in the treatment of eye disease I applied women’s treatment to men and found it suitable. When I observed the application of men’s treatment to men, there was no result. Thus I knew that men’s spirit had weakened and that they had become the same as women, and the end of the world had come. Since I witnessed this with certainty, I kept it a secret."
Yamamoto Tsunetomo (William Scott Wilson, trn.), Hagakure – The Book of the Samurai”
