I woke up and like, the thing was everywhere I've been, I've put the bike in the room where I'm staying.
12:26
Like if I'm, if I'm staying in a house or if I'm camping, it's right next to the tent or if I'm in a motel room, it's, And then everyone said, look, Townsville, your bike's going to get robbed.
12:34
And I'm staying in a hostel.
12:35
And there's nowhere to put it in a room.
12:36
I'm staying in this pod.

Like, usually it's- Fun and nice and- Yeah ... people just wanna have a bit of fun, and they've seen it on Tik- they've seen people do that on TikTok, so they think that's how it is, and- Yeah ... yeah 'Cause some comedians, like, open up the floor- Yeah ... for things, so someone might think, "Oh, that's how they all are." Yeah, yeah, yeah.

That's it.

Where was this breakdown at the Gold Coast? What actually happened?
24:47
Well, like, so I've got the bike piled up with bags, you know, these panniers.
24:50
And I bought a cheap bike because I didn't have much savings after I got fired.
24:53
So I got a credit card and I put the bike on it.
24:55
And everyone was saying, oh, that bike's not strong enough.
24:57
And I was like, gosh, it's fine.
24:59
And then halfway to Brisbane, the back wheel buckled, spokes broke.
