Participating in Chopper Bike Ride 2025

Southland

On May 9th, I’ll be biking 235km from Queenstown to Invercargill for my 8th ride to raise funds for the Chopper Appeal, supporting the vital Otago Southland Rescue Helicopter Service. My goal is to raise $1,000 for this incredible cause.

I’m doing this because I want to make sure the choppers are there for everyone who needs them – whether it's for outdoor adventures or emergencies.

As a bonus, I get to spend the day rubbing shoulders with Richie and Gemma McCaw, Paddy Gower, Nathan Cohen, and Anna Taylor!

Any contribution, big or small, would mean a lot and go a long way in supporting this lifesaving service. Thank you for your generosity!
