- 2 days ago
A lad is cycling 12,000 miles from the UK to Australia just like his dad did 40 years ago - using the same model bike.
Jamie Hargreaves, 22, has been 'raised on his Father's story' - so on the 13 May, he set off to embark on his own epic journey around the world, from Manchester to Australia.
The university graduate from Stockport is documenting his adventure across his social media - and hopes to write a book when he completes the mission to draw upon from his Dad's experience of the world from 1984 in comparison to Jamie's in the present day.
Jamie, who is also an experienced climber, said: "I have always been so intrigued by my Dad's story - and I absolutely love him for his adventures around the world that throughout my life have inspired me.
