    A note to thank you for the contribution you provided for our recent KidsCan Charity Ride from Christchurch to Queenstown.

    The event really went as well as we could have hoped. The forecast rain turned into sunshine, we kept everyone safe, all involved were amped at the challenge and achievement of summiting the climb to Coronet Peak on the final day.

    As a result KidsCan were blown away. This is the second biggest donation they have ever received. Four schools and several hundred children will now be better equipped with shoes, food and a rain jacket should they need a hand up.

    For my part it was motivating to help as we could at iRIDE and see a bunch of mates stretch and challenge themselves in ways most had not before. The team are rightly proud of what we achieved and stoked to have made a little contribution to an often invisible issue in our wider community. Thank you, Andrew.

  • 180km done and dusted!

      19 March 2016

    Hi. Today was a cracking start to the Charity Ride. The weather played nice with temps around 30 degrees by rides end and a nice push on the shoulder from the northerly winds. Everyone stayed upright and for many it was their longest ever ride. After last weeks Charity Night we now stand at around $130k raised, meaning two schools are now off the KidsCan waitlist and we are close to another if we can get to 150k. Thank you for your support!
