This episode of the Pedal On Podcast follows our two earlier episodes in which we looked at the then planned Tour Te Waiponamu, and talked to some of the prospective riders. In this episode we check in after the event, with Brian Alder the race organiser, and participant, and 4 other racers. We talk to overall winner Ollie Whalley, fastest woman Georgia Whitla, Steve Halligan and Hanna Black. We hear how the race panned out for each of them, what they went through physically and mentally, what worked and what didn't, and what they'd do differently next time. And we ask each 'Will there be a next time?'.
The Tour Te Waiponamu is a bikepacking race from the northern most to the southern most points of New Zealand's South Island. It is through some of the most rugged and spectacular country that Aotearoa has to offer, much of it privately owned and normally inaccessible.
