One thing I try to do is a bit of cycling - while not the fastest on two wheels it's good to get on the road.
Many others in the financial services industry seem to get into cycling too - including Burton Shipley at ASB.
I ran into Burton (but not on his bike) in Rotorua the weekend before last as we both did the annual Bike the Lake event where you can ride around Lake Rotorua twice (84kms). This is starting to be used as a build up to the 160km round Lake Taupo ride in the last weekend of November.
Burton is training for Taupo and is also using it as a fund-raiser to help Heart Children, an organisation which assists kids born with congenital heart problems.
His aim is to raise $10k for the Heart Children.
As someone who has used Heart Children I am only to keen to encourage you to support Burton in his fundraiser. Heart Children is a great cause.
So far Burton is up to $8,320. Let's help him get to the $10k mark.

AIA will again be leading a team of 70 staff and advisers for the round Taupo Race - all advisers are certainly welcome to pop into the large AIA tent for a drink and some food.
