JEREMY AND ERIC RIDE
TOUR AOTEAROA*
*on Raleigh 20s.
A Raleigh Rally, if you will.
because why wouldn't you? New Zealand is so little and Raleigh 20's are known for their all terrain capability, their craftsmanship and their copious amount of luggage carrying capacity ..
ABOUT US
We’re two friends who have worked together and ridden mountain bikes together for a number of years.
Without any particular experience in endurance events or very much forethought, with a relaxed training regime and a lot of optimism, we rode the Tour Aotearoa on our Raleigh 20 bicycles.
But aren’t they kids bikes, you ask? Well, umm .. who knows, really.
Starting at Cape Reinga at 7am on 17 Feb 2020, we aimed to make our way 3000km all the way south to Bluff without breaking down emotionally, physically, or mechanically.
We raised money for Christchurch City Mission, a charity that does incredible work for underprivileged people in Christchurch. If you’d like to support us and make our insanity worthwhile, please give generously to City Mission, even now, much later than 2020.
Thanks to those who have helped make this possible- our families for tolerating our silliness, Bevan at Frontal Lobe for helping with set up, our employers for allowing us time off but who probably won’t miss us, and you, for reading this blog.
