Support Our Life-Saving Ride!

From May 5 to May 9, a team of cyclists will ride over 1,000 km from Nelson to Invercargill in just 5 days to raise funds for the 2025 Westpac Chopper Appeal. Every pedal stroke brings us closer to helping provide life-saving helicopter rescues across New Zealand.

Your donation will directly support the Westpac Rescue Helicopter, ensuring they can continue to save lives in critical situations. Every dollar counts and brings us closer to our goal.

Help us make a difference—donate today and support our ride for this vital cause!
