Jamie rides New Zealand

On 30 October 2016 I'll begin riding my mountain bike the length of New Zealand from Cape Reinga to Bluff (approx. 3,000km, route designed by Jonathan Kennett and can be found here: www.kennett.co.nz/maps/tour-aotearoa). It's the first time I've done anything of this length and I'll be doing it solo for the most part. I plan to sleep in tents, the occasional hostel and with kind locals and I'll be keeping a photo blog and sharing some videos along the way. All things going well, I'll be back in time for Christmas.

Thank you for your support - all money donated will be split evenly between Big Buddy; which sponsors fatherless boys to be mentored by good men and Child Cancer Foundation; which looks after children and their families on their journey with cancer. Also a big thanks to Spot NZ for providing the tracking equipment for my ride www.spotnz.com.
