Great video, you must be observant as you managed to capture so many of the the things that makes Western Australia what it is, the footage was so diverse and interesting it made your physical achievement take second place. I would love to hear about the gear to used to tame the Munda Bidi trail

I'm 65 years old, have done and continue to bike tour / pack. My biggest fear is ghosts.

Well done. Thanks for the lovely video

Yeah....besides it's a poisoning fella😳 aguila lizzard,IF i remember correct 🥴🤠👍

Awesome video. Planning my journey now.

Great trail..we did the original track to Walpole, with vehicle support, about 20 years ago, before many of the huts were built, and had a great time. Some achievement to do this on your own…keep enjoying yourself.

Beautifully shot and produced video. Well done. Your shot of the tortoise at 10:22 was brilliant. Southern Western Australia is very pretty and very sparsely populated. The huge forests are what stick in my memory. Australia is a huge and beautiful country, but there are too many things that can fatally bite, sting or eat you on land or in the sea to be truly comfortable there. And this is just in the cities. I saw too many King Brown snakes when I was there several decades ago. They are big, aggressive and a single bite can easily kill you. For the flies you definitely needed a head net. The flies can be insane.

Great achievement. We've just returned from a pemberton/quinninup/manjimup loop and stayed in the Quinninup caravan park / eco village too. If you get a chance, exploring all the southern forest trails in addition to the MBT itself is well worthwhile - there's lots to explore between Donnybrook and Walpole...

Nice one! Glad you enjoyed the Trail Kayleigh.

Great video Kayleigh. I met you at Booner Munduk hut (grey haired old bloke hahaha). When I left you were 😴so I left you to it and sore my way through the soft sand 😂

Thank you. Haha great to meet you at the hut, needed a sleep after that soft sand. Hope you enjoyed the rest of the trip ☺️

Loved your adventure. I have never been to Australia but would like to do that trail minus the insects 😅

Yeah , the flies can be a pain , a good piece of kit to keep in your gear is a hat with a bit of fly mesh on it . Years ago I was on a working holiday across Australia, I got a job on a farm in WA in the wheat belt , the farmer showing me around took me to this very large pig shed which had big double doors at either end, and I kid you not , barely any light was getting through from one end to the other due to huge amount of flies , you tried to keep your nostrils and mouth shut , and when you walked it was like walking on coco pops ….. yes that was the flies😋. That was one job I was happy when it ended lol .

A cool video. You encapsulated many aspects of the journey in a tight format. Goodonya for an adventurous ride.

Girl you have inspired me. I have had this on my radar for a while... Is this the sign to start training?? Haha. Beautiful short film. I know how hard it is to film yourself you did such a wonderful job.

Looks so awesome 🔥

What a great video and congratulations on completing the trail

Wonderfully filmed video. I'm curious as to what tire and width you used. I planning on riding the Munda Biddi in October.

Super well done video Kayleigh. I think you captured the trip really well. Sounds like a challenging trip. Great idea to take some time to fully experience it. Congrats!

Yisss! Scotland! This was so cool. I'm a Scot in Perth atm and my Aussie husband and I (bike fanatics) have found ourselves in Mundaring. Just found out about the Munda Biddi trail. Can't wait to do it. Thanks for the video 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Top shelf Kayleigh, looked like a great ride. Great to catch a glimpse all the local wildlife too. Big thumbs up. Riding is life!

you go girl, bold to break free to live a free life

Very nice work! 🤙🏼🚵🏻‍♀️

Excellent summary of this fantastic little adventure. There is a variety of scenery along the way. Great facilities. When I went each way Mundaring to Nannup 6 months apart, that was as far as the trail existed. It's terrific you can spend three weeks, or 60 hours if you prefer to speed, semi away from civilisation. Loved your video. I only fell in the pea gravel once, but I remember trying to push my bike and trailer up a slope in the pea gravel, and finding sweaty sandals weren't much help on a particularly hot day.

Excellent film!

Great video, Thanks

Great video Kayleigh. I enjoyed it. Hope to do the Munda Biddi myself one day. How did you get time to shoot the animals? Every time I do it, by the time I pull out my camera, the animal has gone!

Excellent effort and well presented video - thanks. i rode Munda Biddi about 8 years ago but only as far as Manjimup (spelling??) as it didnt extend to Albany then... so still have to return to Aus at some point and finish that section i guess. P Gravel = argghhhh!! the ride is a fun adventure.

Great filum making. I wish I had half your talent. Great ride too by the looks. My kind of riding. Keep up the great work 👍

Just stumbled on your video Kayleigh , nice job documenting your adventure. For me the snakes can be a bit of a worry when you are alone away from civilisation.. Years ago I was working in outer Melbourne countryside cutting grass doing fence to fence road side slashing in fire season in a tractor , about an hour away from anywhere , I had to do a stop to do a repair on the tractor and after completing the task on the way back to the cabin , I accidentally stepped on a rather large snake in the long grass , the snake was fairly pissed at me and had a strike at me , but fortunately caught the heel of my work boot ….. so that was a bit exciting 😂. I ran for me life , I could have given Hussein bolt a run for his money that day 😀. All the best to you in your travels.

Makes me wanna go bikepacking again soon!

Great vid! 👍👍

This is an epic video and perhaps because of the soundtrack it reminded me so much of Into The Wild. I think I'd need the insurance of a ride buddy on this trail as there's lots that could go pear shaped .

Thank you. It took a while to choose the music but very happy with my choice ☺️

lovely video - thanks. At about 4 mins in , it looked like you really needed to have packed what we call a 'fly veil'. They really help keeping those very annoying flies out of your face (more like a head net)

Ha -the horse - we all seem to meet the horse

The quality of your lighting and video looks spectacular. 4K? Maybe it's the time of year/season? Capturing those small, unique animals makes you realize that the trail is alive. glad you took the time to stop and film them. Are there any outlets at the huts to re-charge your electriconics? Do you carry powerpaks? How much do you carry for food supply or are there easily located stores for that?

@_kayleighbrown

7 ай бұрын

Thank you. Could be either! There’s no outlets at the huts, I carried a small solar panel to charge things and one battery pack that I’d charge at caravan parks. Supplies were easy to come by, there was shops along the way every 2/3 days ☺️

Great visual storytelling but worth the extra K’s going back for the camera lol

Chapeau great video ,what time of year did you go ?

I’m ditching the bike (for a day) and taking part in the Takayna Trail in February 2024. I’ll be running 22km whilst raising money to support the campaign to save Tasmania’s ancient rainforests from logging. This is my first ever legs only race, so please help me, help the forests by supporting this fundraiser. Thank you ☺️ takaynatrail2024.raisely.com/kayleigh-brown
