What a crazy few days it’s been! Only a couple of months ago, Chris McMurray asked the Auckland Mini Car Club if anyone was interested in being his navigator. I thought “surely other people will be keen”, but no-one was. So I asked a few questions, and found myself getting a AASA race licence… Eeek,


Another year and another silly costume, the squirrel rides again! This Southern Cross Round the Bays event can only be put on because of the people that volunteer to make this event possible. A big thank you to them as well. I’m proud to be entertaining the people, the children and other runs dressed as the

After getting my MotorsportNZ race license last year, I was given an opportunity at the last Auckland Mini Club meeting. One of our members asked if there was anyone that wanted to help co-drive his Mk1 1969 Mini in Targa Rally in 6 weeks. I thought about it, and after the meeting asked Chris a

After being asked by Kimberly Graham “Grab Your Wheels” to participate in this audit of some pathways and cycle ways, how could I refuse. It was so good going out through Pakuranga Rotary path and checking to see how suitable it is for wheelchair users for AT. Also how suitable for different types of wheeled

This event finally happened again, postponed and cancelled previously due to Covid19 restrictions. Huge fundraising effort behind the scenes for LBC to support the great work they do. All volunteers support this event, along with LBC staff (like Jaydan and Unvi) 🙂 I just turn up, grab a mike, speak a few words, then I’m

Wow, so great that Team Motive managed to put this together. I’m only a small cog in this big inclusive ability race car machine, and it’s awesome! So great to be on Pukekohe track and racing this car against so many other vehicles, at the last B&H500, ever! Team Motive set up a 3 team

So driving (technically racing) around the same track I know, Hampton Downs was great in a MX5 aka ZoomZoom. ZoomZoom is a Team Motive vehicle, a wonderful group of people who built this machine. This small collective of people ties disability together for a unique experience. There’s a few of us that started a project

Wow, what an event. It was super hot, and only got hotter. Well to be fair, it was actually cold in the morning, but I didn’t hear anyone complaining. They had to postpone this event due to cover lockdowns, and now they finally were able to put it on. I had a hand from a

I’ve climbed the tower, but in the last 5 years, I support the FiredUp event. Firefighters from all over NZ enter and take part in fundraising for LBC and climbing these stairs. So far the firefighters have raised in excess of $9,200,000 for LBC!! Currently these step legends raise over $1m each year! I’m so

So, first time on the track (sort of) racing Lucy! What a rush! Well, actually, it’s called Classic Time Trial, so more like racing against myself and a consistent time, and other people just happen to be on the track at the same time. Its great being on a track,even if I was the slowest
