The Andrew King / One Planet Story

Sun, 4 Mar 2007 02:19:00 GMT

Andrew was always in my plans for an episode - since I've owned one of his rucksacks for years.

The story is bigger than just another outdoor manufacturer story - his business - "One Planet" is (nearly) carbon-neutral, has recovered from a factory fire, and is a model employer, with a staff loyalty as evidence.

This episode is the first Wildcast âhow toâ podcast, and is about camp oven (dutch oven) cooking. Recently a few mates and I gathered at Wattoâs bush block, south of Canberra, and the highlight of the weekend was a camp oven dinner on Saturday night.

Here are some links of interest (there are thousands on the web).

Experienced as a walker, climber, paddler, and a four-wheel driver, heâs absolutely qualified as an adventurer.

This episode consists mainly of an interview with him, days before he set off to commence this incredible, 20-day, 400plus Km, 1000 dune expedition.

First Episode, with MTB Racing focus.

A slow start (I'm still finding my "voice"!) but launches into a funny interview with Paul Witzerman, who competed in the Central Australian Bike Challenge recently. A few ideas about my planned stories.
