Meeting Mark Beaumont // Ep.4 Unicycling Across Australia

Ed Unicycles Australia [Ep.4] - It’s not everyday that you get to meet a cycling legend! Mark Beaumont, on track to smash the ‘world circumnavigation cycling record’ by powering 18,000miles in a mere 80days, certainly counts. Here I catch up with him on his 'Day 35'. My 'Day 800’ or so, haha!

I'm raising funds and awareness for 'School in a Bag'. Find out more:

My name's Ed and for the last 2 years I've been riding my unicycle around the globe. Over 13,000miles already ridden, 'Ed Unicycles Australia' is the video series documenting my 3000mile self-supported unicycle tour across Oz.

Epic neck kissing from good old Barb there

aw those aussie ladies are sweethearts

[Habanosify]

Please everyone, stop focusing on the cops and start focusing on the wonderful person that is Lynne. She is the type of awesome Australian that everyone needs to be proud of. Amazing person took a stranger into their house and allowed him to use her stuff to fix up his unicycle. Great person.

[deezynar]

That's great that Lynn had all the tools you needed.

The shot of Ed and Mark cycling together is greatness. You guys are like heroes. It's a shame about the safety in Australia. RIP Mike Hall

[readysetsleep]

That is a first being told, " you have no indicators..." For a unicycle or bicycle during the day?

[ECsponger]

Mrs. Lynn is an absolutely wonderful woman. I had a woman take me in like that - Anita from Houston, TX - for 4 days when I cycled across the US. She fed me, made sure I was comfortable, and even took me to her family's Christmas dinner. You might forget a few of the people you stay with or meet on the road, but I know you'll never forget a woman like that.

Aww Lynn is amazing. The wold needs more people with kindness like that (and also her laugh!)

[ashmls]

You meet some beautiful people! Lynne was such a lovely soul. You have a very positive vibe and wishing you the best on your journey!

[fourtwozero]

Seeing a new upload from you always makes my day!

[perdidoenbici]

I was coming to express my hate towards those cops but thankfully others did it for me. Awesome video Ed, I admire and follow both you and Mark and got excited since you said there was a change of meeting him. Keep that wheel rolling! Greetings from México.

amazing thing about bicycle touring is it brings yo into contact with great humans, like the lady...many times these chance happenings have bolstered my faith in humanity.... so I have to pass the favour on.

[Tom-ed-w]

There is no stories when traveling the world in 80 days. I love the breaks and stories you get from traveling in no extreme race

[JasonDBike]

In hindsight your whole adventure was unbelievable, with the encounter of Mark Beaumont the peak of madness.

[manny_f]

This channel is so underrated. I've watched many episodes several times and they are timeless. If Youtube is still running when I'm old, I know I'll still be watching.

[Latchfpv]

The world needs more folks like Lynn, what a wonderful person. Also 2 legends meet, that was super rad. Mark B is just on a whole other level, I wanna be like him.

[driewiel]

Who is Mark Beaumont?
Oh the guy who met Ed Pratt.
Wow THE Ed Pratt!

You are our hero buddy.

[Cyclingabout]

Another great episode, Ed! I was lucky enough to share some time cycling with Mark Beaumont around Melbourne. Super lovely guy, even while he was having the worst day of his trip yet!

[nbushpilot]

Great job Ed. Thanks to your inspiration I received my 36" unicycle today. Stay safe out there and good luck!

[giozampa]

Its nice to see that there's good people like the old lady around the world (Sorry but i didnt understood her name)
