HELP WANTED_Wānaka NZ

AN ALT_ROAD INITIATIVE > We like to think outside is free. It isn't. If we want to continue to benefit from the planet's most beautiful landscapes in which we ride, we must invest in their future. If we all want to continue to chase alternative paths tomorrow, we must answer Mother Nature's call for help today.

Join us in Wānaka, NZ, as we partner with WAI Wānaka - https://waiwanaka.nz, Heatwave (https://www.instagram.com/its.heatwave) and MAAP Ambassadors Sam Shaw (https://www.instagram.com/slamshaw) and Jeremy Presbury (https://www.instagram.com/jeremypresbury), for a ride to Hawea, where we have the opportunity to join the WAI Wānaka team for a beach cleanup.

As well as a great partner to the Help Wanted program, WAI Wānaka is a community organisation, accelerating local action for freshwater to ensure healthy ecosystems and community wellbeing for future generations.
