Introduced by Wayne Gardiner, former motorcycle world champion
This week's program charts the adventures of an octogenarian motor bike rider who's suddenly become the centre of a social networking phenomenon.
When Doug Sunderland succumbed to the blues after losing his wife and being diagnosed with cancer, his GP told him to 'get back on his bike'.
He did... and it 'saved his life', so much so, that he decided to ride around Australia solo, surviving on tinned food and sleeping by the road.
Watch it here, I hope the link works ok. I think maybe it will only work til the next episode of Australian Story is telecast. Just type 'On your bike' into the search panel & it should find it for you.
