231ks ridden, Charity Chopper Ride completed   11 May 2024

Yesterday the whole team successfully completed the Charity Chopper Ride of 231ks. We left Queenstown in a chilly -3, had some rain over the Jollies (where Courtney got the QOM, go team) and a bit of wind in northern Southland. A highly rewarding day, talked to a lot of good folks on the day, heard some personal stories on why the Rescue Helicopter service is so vital. Definitely no easy day out though.
