Cycling - Les Morgan
2005 Central Australian Bike Challenge
7 Day Outback Bike Race
This is seriously tough stuff.
Race around a different course route every day for 7 days.
Last man standing wins.
However not all is as it first appears:
Dastadly acts are allowable so long as race commissaires don't see you.
Les would have cut elapsed time by hours if he concentrated on racing instead of digging Bear Traps, Setting Spike Boards & Throat Trip Wires.
Prizemoney was consumed on legal fees defending charges of Kidnap, Sabotage & an unseemly incident with some backpacker spectators.

He sure looked the part but!
Our intrepid rider did us proud.
Best team kit at the event.
Last seen posing around Alice Springs Airport bar showing off winners Trophy to anyone who would listen, which was reported stolen that morning by a somewhat 'tired & emotional' victor with a nasty gash to his throat and a bag full of punctured tyres.
