Melbourne to Cairns: Meet the Australian skateboarding an ‘insane’ 4,000km

During lockdown last year, Tom Dury hatched a plan to skateboard 4,000km (2,500 miles) from Melbourne to Cairns.

The Australian – who goes by the name Gordy – is now nine weeks into the trip and says he “didn’t realise how big Australia was”.
