Paul Carter is no longer toiling on offshore drilling rigs. At 40 years of age is a successful writer, husband and father. But is he happily nestled in the cotton wool of suburban life enjoying the fruits of his labour? No, he wants to be the first guy to ride around Australia on an underpowered experimental motorcycle that runs on used cooking oil.
Is he out of his mind? Quite possibly. Follow him on a rollickingly, downright dangerous and often unhinged quest that starts on an environmentally friendly motorcycle built on a shoestring budget by students, and ends with a plan to break the motorcycle land speed record for bio fuel.
