About Me

I work at Fliway - a large transport company, been there 5 years. During the weekend I love getting away to Cooks Beach, Piha, or Taupo/Kinloch. Big fan of watersports - water skiing, wakeboarding, kneeboarding, waterpolo...I've owned five Hondas and a BMW. I've now got an Integra Type R. Race it down at Meremere when I can and have had it on the track in Taupo. I've also just bought a track car with my brother and dad - have only raced it once in the wet at Taupo so looking forward to playing with it more.When I'm at a loose end at home I play either my accoustic guitar or electric bass - like to play a bit Pearl Jam, Op Shop, Foo Fighters, The Eagles, Nirvana...Over the summer months I crewed with Morrell Motors Formula Honda Offshore Powerboat team - good way to see a bit more of the country and it's always a bloody good laugh with the Morrell boys. We had improving results over the first season so we're looking forward to getting better next season. Have made a lot of new mates on the circuit around the North Island.

My Interests

Wakeboarding, kneeboarding, motorsports in any way, shape or form. I'm also back playing waterpolo after a couple of years away from the pool - I play in a Sunday night social league with a great bunch of people. I've just started crewing on the Morrell Motors Formula Honda Offshore Powerboat team too.My brother and I have bought a Honda Civic race car and are having good clean fun racing this at Pukekohe and Taupo.
