That's brilliant.

I wouldn't get that far- I'm pretty light but arobically terrible (damn office job........and being lazy)

My Brother does Hobart to Launceston for fun (approx 200Ks....some steep but mostly flat)

I use a Garmin also. I upload the rides on to strava. There are a few different platforms to keep track of your activities but strava is by far the most popular.
