Kia Ora Whanau. Amazing work!!!! Thank you so much for all of your generous donations. Together we have raised over $1100 for the cause! We are super proud of Nikau for getting the job done on the day, getting out on his bike and putting in the hard yards. He's excited about what he has achieved and the money raised.
Today Nikau did his best with the bike a thon. He was excited and started his first lap on his big bike. He did great and pedalled the whole time not stopping once or complaining about that bike. the practising gave him confidence to persevere. He then completed 4 more laps on his wee black bike and zoomed off straight away when on it. He had a good time laughing with his friends and having wee pretend races. He completed 5 laps totalling 1.5km towards the cause. A bit of well earned Slice for afternoon tea during the event for his tied legs. No doubt he will sleep well tonight!
Nikau had been practicing on his new bike this week for the bike a thon tomorrow. This has been really challenging for him as he is not used to a bike with pedals and a brake. It’s also much bigger and feels less stable. He prefers if I hold onto him as he rides. We will see how many laps he feels comfortable on it tomorrow!
