## Resource

Two teen gliders soar into the sky in Victoria, reigniting youth interest in the sport—safe, winch-launched, and surprisingly affordable. Meanwhile, a German retiree pedals across Australia on a pushbike, finding deep Aussie friendships and slow adventure. In the bush, Tony and Avril faced leeches and feral pigs—but also stunning views on the Ngaro Track. Alice Springs prepares for its final Beanie Festival, a woolly legacy winding down after 30 years. And in Winton, a quirky hat exhibition—worn by farmers, riders, and butchers—celebrated outback spirit, complete with a surprise Graham Connors performance.
