My "Australia Day"

-

This was my "Australia Day": sitting next to the Swan River waiting
for the fireworks. People were crazy and quite drunk, but it was their
Day ! It was like in July 2006 when Italy won the World Cup. Flags
everywhere and some people were wearing just an Australian flag
instead of normal clothes :)

Munda Biddi adventure for "Vivere per Amare"

-
I've decided to take on the incredible journey of riding the Munda Biddi trail from Perth to Albany (~1100km) from 15/4! But this adventure is about more than just the thrill of the ride. I have been preparing for weeks for this and only now I decided to dedicate this journey to my cousin Gianluca Latini, who left us far too soon 12 years ago due to a rare endocrine tumor, at only 39. I hope this ride will help honor his  memory and raise awareness about endocrine and neuroendocrine diseases. I've set up a GoFundMe page to support the association established in Gianluca's name, 'Vivere per amare - Gianluca Latini' (Live to Love). Every contribution helps, no matter the size. If you'd like to join me in making a difference, here's the link:  https://gofund.me/ae7d4661 Thank you all for your support and encouragement on this meaningful journey! Together, let's ride for a cause.

The adventure starts tomorrow

less than 24 days before my adventure starts and I have mixed feelings: excited for the new experience and worried at the same time. Every time I go out with the bike, even for a short ride, the thought that I cannot make it is always there. However, on this occasion, it is not just the fear of physical exhaustion, but thinking about where to find food, water and if I will be able to rest properly while camping outdoors. I will share my journey with two friends, Richard and Waeel. We trained together and hopefully we will be able to enjoy every bit of it. In the picture I depicted the track of my first day. I have the ambition to start from the doorstep of my house! Do not forget my fundraiser: https://gofund.me/ae7d4661 You can check my progress here: https://giovanni.maprogress.com/mundabiddiforvivereperamare

MUNDA BIDDI day 1

-
First day went. It was harder than I expected but I managed to get to the camp-site at a decent time before sunset. I have to thank Richard and Waeel who had the patience to wait for me. Without their support it would have been more difficult. We met other riders. Two ladies who started the adventure on the same day and a Belgian cyclist carrying 26l of water! Even a dog liked us and wanted to join our company around the Kalamunda circuit. Spirit is still high, the legs a bit less Tht S all for now
