Almost two years ago to the day Emma Flukes came on the podcast for the first time. You may remember that we were at the very beginning of a global pandemic that you change our lives more than we could have imagined at the time. She is a Tasmanian native and the founder of Tassie’s Gift. When she’s not pedaling her bikes or petting wombats she’s busy monitoring the decline of our habitable world as a Marine Scientist. I took this opportunity to ask her “How fucked are we?”. After detailing the decline of our species we cheerfully switch gears to bikes, bikepacking, murder shanties, and wombats.
Emma goes about her business without much fanfare or self promotion, quite the opposite in-fact. She’s quite happy pedaling her little rocket (her bike) all over her state almost always riding alone. I found her on instagram shortly before she came on the podcast the first time which is the best way to follow her adventures, mishaps, murder shanty porn, and “science”! Or you can just keep your dial tuned to BoD, I’m sure we can get her back in a couple years or so!

Emma sent me a bunch of pictures that really help showcase the places she rides, the terrain, and the weird (and cute) shit she comes across. Enjoy!
