'Crazily impulsive, quixotic and free-spirited, Reg was living in the UK when he became a national hero and hit international headlines for smuggling himself on a 63-hour, 13,000-mile journey from Heathrow to home because it was cheaper than buying a ticket. But as his fame and sporting career faded, Reg decided to smuggle something very different. In 1981, he and his five housemates were arrested fro conspiracy to import 1.2 million dollars of cannabis resin into Australia. Rather than face years in prison, Reg and his girlfriend, Annie, went on the run.' (Publisher's blurb)
