- Tour Te Waipounamu is New Zealand's premier bike packing race. The route spans the length of the South Island and a large amount of the 1,330km covered involves hiking and technical single track. This race was my key focus for 2024, and it's certainly a privilege to be able to race through this impressive landscape including sections of private property. The racing was exciting with good friend Rufus hot on my heels. Sit back and enjoy!!

Awesome ride. I was dot watching the whole way, going about my normal life heading off to work and every time I looked you were moving. Epic work Joe!
Sensational ride and footage. Good to see Relentless Rufus making you work for it.
Joe, amazing and humbling. You are truly a machine! Now, if only you and Mark Beaumont could organise something together and get Netflix to pay for it .... call it Ride to Survive 😁
I've been walking the TA trail, was great to see you on it a few times during your ride. Congratulations on finishing first and with a new course record.
Absolutely smashed out that course Joe! Well done! As always, the video footage and editing is brilliant!

Congratulations on an awesome ride. Only last week we rode through Oturehua and stayed at the Crows nest. Bill told us about this crazy bugger who rode in late and left early and made it to Slope Point that day. You were that crazy bugger..Great video. Thanks very much.

Awesome ride and inspirational. Is there going to be a gear review? Keen to know how the wide shoes went (from another wide footed person!), as well as the rest of the kit
So Farking EPIC!!!
So f*ing inspiring Joe - congrats! And to achieve that while also capturing such amazing footage AND then to edit & get this video out so quickly thereafter - I mean, wow.
Thanks a lot!

Those Lammerlaws were so grim aye

💪
Epic Joe! Smashed the record and filmed the whole thing 😂
Cheers Greg mate!
Props……no other words It would do it no justification.
Great Ride , random question but is it easy enough to follow the correct route ?
Yeh, it's pretty easy once its all loaded up on the Garmin you just follow the red line and can't go too wrong, gets hard at night time on single track or in random paddocks etc though
Bad man!
Ah yeah
What a weapon
Congratulations on the win, and to Rufus for second. Good prep and good realistic, achievable (if hard) plan. Great scenery, a real insight into New Zealand for us that have never visited. How was the carry system from Restrap? Did I hear right that that was called Bollock Buster Hill before you caught up with Rufus the first time? 🤪If it wasn’t it should have been 😂
Hey, thanks a lot! The Restrap carry system worked perfectly, so I have no complaints there! hahah yes, an appropriate name
