Halberg Trust
I have attended two Celebrity Sporting Functions held by the Halberg Trust since my return. The Halberg Trust is an organization which honors sporting excellence and gives people with disabilities the opportunity to be involved in sport, recreation and leisure activities. These were fantastic events which I attended in Nelson and Dunedin that raised funds for a great organization.
Aoraki Secondary Schools Sports Awards
I was the guest speaker at the Aoraki Secondary Schools Sports Awards dinner held in Timaru on the 31st. The event celebrates the sporting talent from the Aoraki region.
Mountainview High School Sports Awards
I was the guest speaker at Mountanview's schools sports awards, which is a local Timaru high school.
Radio, Radio, Radio
I have had plenty of radio interviews since my return and even recorded a radio ad for Bob Driver Autos/kia.

Last year Cheryl and I started learn to skate leasons on Sunday afternoons in Timaru. It gave me a chance to give something back to the community and rejuvenate the South Canterbury Skating Club which has lacked number for quiet a few years. We have continued learn to skate again this year on Sunday afternoons from 2pm. We now have a group of budding young speed skaters who I am also coaching on Friday afternoons.
Bike Racing
I am back on my bike and racing three times a week.
