Andrew Robinson has set himself a goal of conquering all of New Zealand's  23 Great Rides in just a month. Kathryn  spoke to him as he was planning his trip a month ago. Now he is one island through his fundraising venture for Movember and men's health. Such extreme events are not new to Andrew as in 2021 he became the first person to  complete all 10 of the Great Walks in 10 days. He set off from the Hauraki Rail Trail and headed south.

He joins Kathryn from near Nelson, where he is about to tackle his 3rd South lsland ride: the Great Taste Trail.
