Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.


I'll do all the hard work; train for and complete this event, but I really need your help to make a difference to my charity.

Please could you sponsor us?
On the 2nd March Myself and 3 friends, Kim Libby, Tod Penberthy and Shane Page set out from Bluff on our epic bike ride to Cape Reinga travelling over 2200km in 20 days. With a days rest in Wellington and Auckland we will average approx 130km a day. In addittion, 3 others are joining us at Bluff accompanying us to Picton, Geoff Chilcott, Alistair Johannesson and Brian Evans.
While pedalling with your help, we hope to raise funds for North Shore Hospice in memory of my Mother Joan who passed away in 2001.
