Episode 22: Ron & Adam in Wellington, New Zealand

The Race To Rugby World Cup Pod

Ron and Adam come to us from Wellington, New Zealand to tell us about their journey from Brisbane to Fiji and then their cycle from Brisbane down to Sydney, Australia - which wraps up their 6 weeks in Australia.

They flew into Nadi, Fiji from Brisbane and were privileged to experience Fijian's love of the game of rugby. Fiji was an important country for Ron & Adam to visit for two reasons, one that they have teams playing in the 2021 and 2023 Rugby World Cups but also to acknowledge the work that ChildFund Rugby is doing in Fiji. They had an extremely special day with the DHL Express team in Fiji and another great day on a fellow Pretoria Boys High boy's fishing charter. Thank you for that!

They flew back to Brisbane and got back on the bikes towards Sydney, via cool surfing towns and with a few great coffees along the way. Ron & Adam got to explore towns that they did not have high expectations for and these places would come to completely change their opinions of them. From watching the Springboks vs Wallabies in a bowling club in Maclean to being treated to great accommodation by Wyndham Hotels group, this part of their cycle has been beautiful and so interesting. Only thing is that they wish they could have seen a koala!

A huge thank you to the team at ChildFund who hosted an epic fundraiser lunch in Sydney & thank you to all the people who donated on that day. If you are able to (and if you are inspired by this story so far), please donate to ChildFund Rugby via our website, www.racetorugbyworldcup.com.
