The CatWalk Trust has been given the opportunity to import and promote a Martin Conquest motorcylce from the UK. The Conquest is a 3 wheeler motorcyle designed for users in wheelchairs. It is doing a national tour, Auckland to Southland, late October and early November. I would like to see how many kiwiriders are keen to join the various legs of tour.

Got this leg bookmarked now, might ride up and meet you part way down, I don't intend to get up that early in the morning to put me in Kaikoura at 0900.

Cool. The more the merrier. I won't be on the South Island tour as I can only afford a couple of days off :(

Kim from Catwalk Trust said it sounded like they have had a lot of interest from riders around the country.
