Lockdown Idea #7: Bike 3000kms across NZ for a purpose.

$3,033 donated
Given by 27 generous donors in 4 weeks

All funds raised will go to Hospice NZ to support terminally ill people & their families in the toughest of times.

Auckland

Last year my father-in-law passed away after a long illness. During his last months his family was supported wonderfully by the team at Mercy Hospice in Auckland.

In the 1st Lockdown last year a group of friends & I decided to join the ToA for a purpose. The Tour Aotearoa stretches 3,000 km from Cape Reinga to Bluff it follows a combination of cycle trails, tracks, paths and lanes connected by the most enjoyable country roads available.

Over the 2ish weeks we'll be supporting locally owned tourism accommodation & hospitality operators with $$$ which they really need.

In addition we've all committed to fund raise for Charities of importance to each of us - mine is Hospice NZ who supports all Hospices across NZ.
