Irina and Radu are Romanian adventurers and cyclists and they are now circumnavigating Australia on two recumbent trikes. One fully suspended with electric motor and solar panels to charge the battery ridden by Irina. One with no suspension and no motor for Radu. Their first stretch headed to the very north point of Australia - the Cape York.

Seeing the journey of both of you has created a passion for traveling in my mind too. I pray to God that your journey is happy.🙏

Thanks for the great video. I also ride a recumbent trike. I live in Japan, Australia is my dream.

Thank you for sharing your adventure, I have many etrikes and a quad with fat tires. Weight is the real issue, always re-evaluate your cargo.

Thanks so much for sharing your journey with us. World travellers like yourselves inspire us to reach out and go beyond our cycling comfort zones. We may not travel the world but we certainly can seek out smaller journeys of adventure where bikes and trikes give us an unparalleled view of the world. All the best to you in your future travels.

Wow , you two are legends 🙏🏻 👍, I’ve been a Melbourne boy threatening to get up north to the pointy bit one day (for years), I’m old now so it’s on my bucket list 😊. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us . Stay safe and happy.

What a trip! Yeah as others said, a set of 4" fats would have been the go for all that sand and rougher dirt roads. Other than tyres, looks like you have the best of the best trike models! Watched the Jayoe video Azub build- wish I could afford one. I ride a Greenspeed Magnum big wheel which is great and around half the price but no suspension. If I had $10k or more to spend it'd be on a rotovelo carbon or a WAW velomobile and I'd be happy just on the bitumen doing a steady 30- 35kmh.

Foarte frumos. Voi încerca și eu să găsesc o tricicletă asemănătoare pentru mine. Aici nu au apărut încă, poate voi putea comanda una online!

20:00 not to brag but for anyone curious; my fat-trike has 4" tires, I have absolutely no trouble with sand like that.

Most of the Outback is soooooooo desolate. How did you resupply for food and water??? Also...did you run into any creepy crawlys critters: venomous snakes, spiders or salty's crocs?

@alanmelvillesbicycleriding1085 2 года назад

Well done guys. Where are you heading now?

2 года назад

We are going to explore Hinchinbrook island for a few days on the east coast and then head on our trikes to Alice Springs, all the way from Townsville.

@alanmelvillesbicycleriding1085 2 года назад

@ mate, consider doing the Plenty Highway, there are less trucks and traffic. It's dirt. I've done it. Do you have room for 4 inch tyres on the front? If so fit them for dirt riding. Put the fatest tyre you can on the rear. Contact me if you want. I have a lot of remote area bicycle touring experience. Good luck.

Definitely. We just made it to Boulia and we are getting ready for the Plenty. Thanks for the tip.

Obviously the indigenous people don’t use the ferry but swim across

@richglaser4566 2 года назад

Looks like a trip to hell for me. Maybe a fat tire bike would work better for that adventure

Even better Rich would be a fat tire recumbent trike, which a few companies have been making since about 2015. I had a fat tire trike for a while, with three 26" wheels, sporting 26x4.8 inch knobby tires, and it was extremely comfortable, especially since it was fully suspended. The areas in this video where the couple had traction issues would be non-issues on a fat tire trike. By the way, I also had a titanium fat tire mountain bike, which was also a blast to ride, but for an extended trek like the one shown here, three wheels with large fat tires would be better when it comes to comfort during day after day of pedaling. steve

I meant a fat tire recumbent that my rig right now. I have a power assist motor on it and I’m very happy with it. I plan on getting another trike more set for a road trip with regular tires
