Whitehorse Challenge – The Tom and The Stig

Tom and The Stig are completing the Whitehorse Challenge, a teams challenge run as part of the Whitehorse Big Easy event. Teams have the dual challenge of splitting a 25km mountainbike and 18km mountain run with a fundraising challenge. Teams are required to raise $500 via this page, that will be distributed by the Waimate Rotary Club to local, regional, and national causes, including Kidscan, Centrecare, South Canterbury Hospice, Bushtown, and the Whitehorse Mountainbiking Club (for further track maintenance).

The unknown has entered the competition! Tom is rolling out the big guns, calling on a dark and mysterious, unknown downhill mountainbike expert to really give his team an edge. We know him only as “The Stig” (insert your own dramatic music breakdown here) and it is rumoured there are only few in this world that have actually seen him without a full face helmet! Tom Wilson, our local tame Scotsman and part time gamekeeper, is dusting off his running shoes that have not been used since Scotland school champ days. We’ll hope that once a champion always a champion, even if it is the big 30 this year! In fantastic news they enter the race with their $500 already fundraised thanks to the generosity of Farmlands Real Estate Waimate, Waituna Gamebirds, and Cushions & More Made with Love! These three businesses challenge other businesses to get behind a team and show their support for this great cause!
