Oli Broom, a die hard Cricket fan, has knocked the charity world for a huge six - by cycling from England to Australia in time for the first Ashes Test.
The 29-year-old, cricket lover, arrived in the Gabba ground in Brisbane on Wednesday after nearly 14 months of frantic pedalling.
Mr Broom, whose efforts raised more than £30,000 for charities the British Neurological Research Trust and the Lord's Taverners, set off on his bike from Lord's cricket ground on October 10 last year with 17 friends.
"When we reached England's south coast, they all turned around and went home," Mr Broom wrote on his website.
"I jumped on a ferry to France and later that evening began cycling across Europe.
