Shiralee loves her bike rides, and her most recent was a six-hour solo race at the BFA Taupō Day Night Thriller, where she finished third in the women's division, no less.

She was one of only five women to take it on, clocking 71km over 14 laps of the Patuiwi Forest trails in 5 hours 37 minutes. She'd have squeezed in another lap if the clock had allowed. Legend!

Gunson McLean were proud to help sponsor the Huanui College netball team at this years Zespri AIMS Games School Sporting Championships. Shiralee and her partner also traveled to Tauranga to support their granddaughter, who is in the team.

Of course, no trip away is complete without a bike ride or two! They cycled around the Mount and said it was sobering to see where the slips were, though it was great to see the Surf Club now back in their building.

Bertus recently spent a week on a pest control trip to Ngamatea Station with a few mates, and came home with a solid haul of venison.

He says Ngamatea is a pretty serious operation. A 70,000 acre high country sheep and beef station wintering around 80,000 stock units, with a focus on prime lamb production and a wool clip of roughly 180,000kg a year. Seeing a station of that scale run so well day to day was a real highlight of the trip.

It's these kinds of experiences that keep us connected to the farming community we work alongside every day.
