Woke up this morning to a new edition of Singletrack magazine to see an article written by my mate Rickie Cotter about her experience in New Zealand riding the Tour Aotearoa 2016. The TA is an unsupported mountain bike race/tour/ride through 3000km of NZ wilderness. I have cycled most of the route and it is breathtaking and in places brutal. Worth mentioning that Rickie smashed it in 10 days which is super impressive!

Today I am dragging myself into the digital era! As I put the website together I feel fortunate in the knowledge that Andy T (a good friend of mine) and digital expert is on his way to Bath to help me develop the website. I suspect there will be a great deal of comedy value when he inspects my first stab at WildSBR!
