3 weeks and counting

Earlier this year Christopher’s family had some pretty rubbish news - his step father had stage four cancer. That news got him thinking about what he could do to give back and support Arohanui Hospice. As a keen cyclist the idea emerged “why not try and ride for 24 hours?”

1 day - 1 man - 1 bike - 1 goal - raise as much as possible for Arohanui Hospice. He’d love to see as many people as possible come to the velodrome to support or even do a lap with him!
