Rian and Dylan are two mates from the Sunshine Coast that really wanted to go on an adventure for waves. A pretty common thought for all bodyboarders out there. Except these guys took a slightly different take on it. They're cycling 3000km across Indonesia, from Banda Aceh in northern Sumatra, all the way down to Bali in three months. To view their route watch the video above.

From the picture below it seems that the lads have got their transport pretty well sussed with all their gear attached onto the bike and the trailor on the back for the boards.

And if you're wondering if the guys have scored any waves, take a look at this nugget at the notoriously fickle gem of Lagundri Bay, Nias. Yup, we'd say they have too!

So get in contact with the guys (Dylan on the left, shredder from Nias Keyhole Surf Camp in the middle and Rian on the right) and see how all their travels have been going on their blog at eat.sleep.surf or chat to them on their forum. We're sure that after reading a few of their posts you'll be planning an adventure of your own in no time.
