Just a bird on a bike fundraising for I Am Hope Foundation
Auckland
They said I was Chicken. Nope I'm all Rooster. But I've had my fun with anxiety and want to help others.
So I'm taking on the double challenge of the Whaka100* and the Round Taupō enduro this year to raise some $ for I Am Hope - an organisation doing amazing mahi making mental health support accessible.
That's 100km of hard climbing (brutal 3k up!) Rotorua mountain biking at the end of October, and then 328km/200miles (2 whole laps!) of central plateau road riding at the end of November. And cos I’m a sucker for punishment, if I complete a Whaka100 practice lap in 9 hours I’m going to try to upsize to the 100miler for a ~12 hours on the bike each event.
For a sweet $50 you can have your (or your company name) on my shirt. For $100 you can have 5 (non-rude) words of your choice. Pay more, get a bigger font.
If you collectively give $5k, I'll even ride in the rooster suit!
Hell YEAH! 23 August 2024
Exciting day, exciting week!
1. Ordered my custom "IAmHope" lycra from Tineli for the events
2. Picked up my "new" refurbed mountain bike from Dean the amazing
3. Cracked $1k funds raised
4. Have definitely shaken the illness and training has really started to deliver some gains
What a bunch of amazingness to be stoked on!
