    After an epic trip through the country I arrived in Bluff at 11:27am on Friday 18th March. It was an amazing journey through incredible parts of this beautiful country of ours and I met many wonderful people along the way. Over the 3,084 kilometres I rode uphill a total of 38,000 meters, burnt around 80,000 calories and lost 3kgs in weight. Very glad to be home and off the saddle for a while! Thanks to everyone for your incredible support of the Kidney Society - your donations are greatly appreciated.

    Today is my second day in the South Island. The journey through the North Island was incredible. Extremely tough going in places, physically and mentally challenging but the most wonderful scenery and experiences. My bike had performed flawlessly, my body less so 🤣 A much needed rest day in Wellington followed by two shorter days in the Nelson/Marlborough regions have me feeling refreshed and ready for the final 1200kms 👍

    Left Cape Reinga at 7:00am on Friday morning and have had a couple of great days riding so far. Tiring and challenging at times but it’s fantastic to be on the way. Met some amazing locals, other riders and had phenomenal Northland hospitality. Heading through Auckland Sunday/Monday and into the Waikato and beyond 😎
