And we are off (nearly!)  9 September 2024

Hi everyone,

Two more sleeps and we are on our way! I will be posting regular updates on Facebook and if you go on Instagram, you can look Alex up and follow him at: https://www.threads.net/@alexcrxwe?xmt=AQGz7Tl3o8tO03xf233RnZ9SztMYrAmRuT95D2hZCN8Splw

Below is the link below to FRS (Freestyle Roller Sport) who are the organisation arranging our NZ crew. There are 13 of us bunking up in Rome and we are a 20 min walk from the Colosseum which is where the street scootering comp is happening. I think we are going to have a lot of fun!

Thank you so much again to all of you who helped to make this happen. And thanks to my Mum, we are also travelling for a few weeks after the comp so we are feeling pretty blimin lucky and excited.

I will post an update on this page upon our return but until then.. Ciao!
