Lachlan Morton

The Shadow Of The East is the third installment in the Outskirts series which sees brothers Gus and Lach getting the band back together for a journey from Albania to Istanbul. Underprepared and out of their depth Gus & Lach endure a journey as strange as you would expect in all the ways you wouldn't.

Brothers Gus and Lachlan Morton (yes, the one who races with WorldTour team Garmin-Sharp), got back to basics in an attempt to recover the lost magic of the sport. This is their story about the 2500km journey from Port Macquarie to Uluru in just twelve days
