Howdy from Auckland NZ
Howdy folks, my name is Jared and I am an avid cyclist of both road and mtb.
I have always been into riding road bikes but in 2008 I decided to give mountain biking a shot and have been hooked ever since.
In Februrary this year I did a 7 day tour from Auckland to Waihi Beach, Te Aroha and the Thames Coast areas (535km on an Avanti Montari towing a small trailer) which has got me hooked to explore more of my stunning country as well as setting up a bike packing rig to head to some more remote locations.
Enjoy the ride and keep it shiny side up
