CYCLING & SAILING AROUND THE WORLD

70,000 Kilometers by Bicycle & 22,000 Nautical Miles by Sail

  

Welcome to expedition Earth Odyssey

I am Benji Rodgers-Wilson and on December 10, 2006 I set off from Federation Square in Melbourne, Australia to embark on a solo expedition to circumnavigate the world by bicycle and sail.

Through this website I will document the full story as it unfolds. I hope you can check-in from time to time and join me as I cycle and sail around the world on a series of transcontinental and oceanic journeys bound for some of the most remote and inhospitable environments on the planet. more

I’m always keen to meet the locals (what better way to learn about the places I visit). If I’m passing through your area and you’d like to have a bicycle nomad as a guest please don’t hesitate to contact me via the contact page or email me at benji@earthodyssey.net

  

Brief Update 

Feb 08 

I have finally arrived on the cold, white northern Island of Hokkaido, Japan, and in doing so I’ve completed the first stage of the expedition 14 months after departing Melbourne.
