This adventure rests on different kind of purposes :
- A sports purpose: to cycle under 20 weeks and with no assistance the 4350 kilometres from Melbourn (in the south-east of Australia) to Cap York (in the northeast).
- A technical one: to use and preserve all the useful technical equipment: first the bikes, then the camping equipment and finally the recording one (the video camera, the camera...).
- A cultural: to meet the Australian people and learn about their everyday life and culture which are not given a lot of media coverage in France.
- An occupational: to carry out a documentary in a travel diary form with highlighting the Australian customs.
- An educative purpose: to state our experiences to come to different kind of audiences: schoolchildren, students and all the curious people and that during and after the trip.
And with a view to giving our project more visibility, we decided to create our own web site: www.australieavelo.com which will enjoy a very steady updating.
Julie, Julien and Mathieu made the choice to fulfil their dreams with the sole aim of trying to choose most of the broad outlines of their life.
An initiatory voyage!
