3000 Miles Across Australia in 89 Days! // Ep.8 Unicycling Across Australia

This video outlines the massive problem in Bidi Bidi Refugee Camp:

While of course attempting to circumnavigate the globe by unicycle is my own personal goal and way of experiencing the world, there's also a more serious side to my trip. Before set off I reached out to the Piers Simon Appeal, a local charity, that runs an initiative called ‘School in a Bag’, offering to raise funds for them as I slowly wobble my way across 4 continents.

The basic idea of School in a Bag is to provide educational aid, if the form of school bags (rucksacks packed full with pens, pencils, exercise books, eating utensils, maths sets etc.), and send them out to children around the world that don’t have access to these basic learning tools.

Recently SIAB have set up a new appeal to help refugee children in northern Uganda. They’ve also decided to use £5000 of money that’s been raised though my page to kickstart this appeal.

Note from School in a Bag: “The need to support children in Bidi Bidi is massive so we are just looking at ways in which we can make our appeal as successful as possible. The team decided that by having a decent amount of money on the page when it was launched would encourage others to contribute towards it.”

Youtube recommended me the first video and i binged through all of them

4000 kilometres across AUS and all most gets taken out by a hatchback at the very last 100 metres.

It's a bummer that the algorithm kept this channel from me until years after the completion of your tour. But when I finally stumbled on the channel and watched a few episodes, I knew I had to go back and binge the series chronologically. Holy shit, what an adventure. Love the journey, brother.

Also, love the BTTF spoof at the end. Glad Josh got to play a role in it!

[thenath]

Well done Ed mate! I've got absolutely no interest in unicycling but can't stop watching your videos.

[biketothetop]

Ed, the Back to the Future spoof at 11:15 was very cool and creative! You should release that video as a single stand-alone video so more people get to see it. I really like how you improvised and made the digital timer.

[surrealsoul]

The editing in this one was absolutely top-notch! Hats off to ya, Ed!

[BIGJED]

That back to the future clip was amazing. I'm crying with laughter

[Tuariq]

YouTube recommends me the finale and within 2 days I am already at the end of Australia... this series is addicting
