Kristina Ootjers goes transcontinental
There's a cyclist in Darwin, Australia, who has been turning heads. The bike alone stands out. It's more of a smallish train. But it's the owner of the bike who draws the most interest. Maybe it's the tattoos, or maybe it's the workboots with a dress. "I'm a transgender person, I wear a dress and I think that would be the first thing I think people would notice about me and they see the rig that I'm pushing and probably their eyes would fall out of their heads," says Kristina Ootjers, who's on a ride for charity, raising money for a Uniting Church foundation called Exodus - but not that Exocus - that looks after homeless people and has set up a school for mentally disabled children.
