please support our team as we attempt a guinness world record for two fantastic charitable causes…
A team of New Zealanders from RISE UP Foundation’s recent SPINFLUENCE Spin-a-thon fundraising event, is joining forces with a charity team from Australia on 1 February 2025, to attempt to break the Guinness World Record for ‘Longest Static Cycling Class’ . The current World Record sits at 31hrs 34mins (non-stop riding). We are aiming to hit 33hrs! Net proceeds will go to two amazing charitable causes…
… a charitable entity with a focus on facilitating the provision of life skills, knowledge, career pathways and a range of different work-based training programmes and scholarships for disadvantaged and/or displaced youth (Māori, Pasifika and Pakeha) across Aotearoa.
Our goal is to be the ‘social support’ team at the top of the cliff and not the ambulance at the bottom! Our crew are committed to providing a range of solutions by running a series of public fundraising events + activities and working closely with the corporate, philanthropic and government communities for sponsorship, contributions and grants that help deliver programs.
the problem:
a stark reality: a growing gap in opportunities and outcomes for kiwi youth, with aspirations stifled by limited resources.
the solution:
no.8 wire it: create programs that empower Kiwi youth by equipping them with practical skills to progress in their lives.
