    Join Stewart Faichney in the classic ABC adventure series ‘Breakaway.’
    World-touring French author and motorcyclist Anne-France Dautheville takes Stewart on a 3000km motorbike ride across the top of Australia.
    The pair travel from Cairns, across the Cape York Peninsula to Normanton, down to Mount Isa, across to Tennant Creek and finally north to Darwin.
    While Dautheville conquers the dirt roads and relentless heat of the north for a second time, Faichney experiences sides of his home country he never imagined.
    ‘Breakaway - Follow That Girl’ first aired on 1 January 1978.

    I met and photographed Anne-France for a portrait series I've been working on this past summer in Paris. She doesn't ride any longer but she is as feisty as ever. It was a privilege to spend time with her.

    I remember watching this back in the seventies, thinking that I’d love to do that. Stewart sums it up well, at the end and how awesome is Anne, always another adventure to be done.

    Why did I ever sell my BMW R80? The memories listening to the bikes in this video are strong.
    Yes, the frame was flexy and the headstem bearings always worked themselves loose, but it was lovable.
    A dab of champers as perfume, that's a new one on me. Is it a French thing? (the dab, not the champers)
    Fairly aggressive tread for a big touring bike!

    That was a great memory..I went right around Australia in 1984/5 and it was like they said at the end...You don't want it to end...The adventures me and my dog had in the wild were like an Outback movie...A fasicating place where you realize just how small you are...Kawasaki Z1000...

    They collude with each other, make mischief, suppress and smear, do evil things, and people and gods are angr.
