Cycling around the world with kids on a triplet and a tandem. Great idea or guaranteed road to misery? Find out here as we document our journey in real time. Beginning in February 2024 from our home in Tasmania we are heading to New Zealand to pump up those flabby thigh muscles first. This podcast is classroom friendly (nothing outrageous) but mainly for our adult friends (kids will probably get bored!).

As we make our way up the west coast of New Zealand we discuss food wars, wonderful encounters and the plan ahead.

6. New Zealand Rocks!
Earthquakes (super minor), sandflies and jet boats feature in this episode as we ride from Lawrence to Fox Glacier on New Zealand’s South Island. The weeks are building up and this adventure is just getting started.

5. Over the hill and over the ditch
Our first big test on the Plenty Link Road in Tasmania and then we pack up the circus and navigate the airline system to arrive in New Zealand.

4. We hit the road (and Jeannie’s finger!)
We are officially riding around the world now. Sort of… we feel like frauds as we cycle through our own backyard but hey, you gotta start somewhere! This episode is a recap of the first four days on the road.

3. One week before we go…
The days are really ticking down now. We discuss putting the triplet bike together and other final preparations. We also answer an email from a French family asking for advise on their upcoming Australian adventure.

2. Your adventure is departing in one month…
With a month before departure we dissect all the important questions. Can a helmet double as a toddler potty? Has the triple arrived yet? (Spoiler…no)
