Sorry, this is really really last minute, but for those readers who are in New Zealand, check me out on Campbell LIVE tonight (Wednesday 16th July) at 7pm on TV3. Spoke to John via satellite today at the Associated Press Office in Hong Kong.

Also, a story about my journey appeared in the South China Morning Post yesterday. Read it here.

Hats off to you mate, from the depths of the King Country. i was moved by your enthusiasm on John Campbells show.

One question – do you always push with the same leg, or alternate?

Great interview, Rob. Those video clips of yours came out very clearly on the TV so I can see no reason why they couldn't be used for a much longer documentary on your whole trip, bike and skateboard.

Awesome, awesome, awesome.

Travelling from A to B is not about A, or B, but about everything in between.

Good words, dude.

Just as well we heard via another source re your interview with John Campbell! Would have missed it otherwise – not exactly I suppose as we can still see the internet stream. As Aunty Les said, the video footage was brilliant so I hope you're getting geared up to write both a documentary and a book when you get back!!! that should keep you busy for a while. looking forward to the rest of your journey.
