Australia by electric motorcycle: retiree nears continental milestone

A retiree is nearing the completion of the first circumnavigation of mainland Australia on an electric motorcycle. The journey has reached about 11,200 miles, or more than 18,000 kilometres.

The achievement highlights the potential of electric mobility over extreme distances in a country where remote areas require careful planning for charging and range. The milestone represents a significant test for zero-emission two-wheelers.
