Joe Trek: Skating Around Australia
I pointed to the great new adventure travel site Stellar Magazine a bit ago
because I thought it was really worth a look. One of the things I like most about it are the short, and excellent,
videos on characters like Scot Schmidt.
But there is also a very cool Webumentary
at Stellar that you ought to check out. It is called
Joe Trek and follows the adventures of
inline skater Joe Rehana, a 20-something adventurer who once skated across the United States. His newest adventure
takes him to Australia, where he is attempting to be the first guy to skate around the entire continent of Australia.
Yes, you heard that right. Around Australia. We're talking about almost 10,000 miles of skating from Sydney to places
like Tennant Creek, Broome, Carnarvon, Perth, Albany, and on and on, with him finishing back in Sydney approximately
ten months later. At Stellar, you can follow his trip reading dispatches, seeing photos and watching the countdown
clock tracking his progress. An excellent Flash interactive also let's you
follow his progress. This is one worth checking out.
