01

Stories from the Road

The story of cycling 30,000 kilometres from Roscommon to Sydney — told the way it actually happened. The funny moments, the frightening ones, the strangers who fed me, and the road that kept turning under the wheel for two years. A night of stories, photographs, and the long way round.

02

Mental Health, Honestly

A frontline nurse on grief, hope, and what the wards taught me — and what the road taught me after I lost someone close partway through. The reasons people choose to keep going, inspiring those to appreciate every moment

03

Endurance and the Long Way Through

What it actually takes to keep going when stopping is easier. Fear, failure, doubt, and the small repeated decisions that get you across a continent — or through anything else that asks more of you than you thought you had.
