SQ**RT CYCLING PRODUCTS IS ONCE AGAIN GETTING BEHIND SPIRITED WOMEN !

Here are some bike care tips for winter.

Winter is coming, and with the Spired Women – All Women’s Adventure race on the horizon, there's no better time to show your bike some love. Wet trails, mud, and cold conditions can be tough on your drivetrain — but with the right care routine, you'll stay race-ready all season long.

Start with a proper wash. Sq**rt's Biodegradable Bike Cleaner cuts through winter grime effectively without harming your bike or the environment. Non-corrosive, caustic-free, and biodegradable — it's tough on mud, gentle on everything else.
Protect your drivetrain. Sq**rt Chain L**e is a long-lasting dry wax emulsion that won't attract the dirt and mud that winter riding throws at you. It reduces friction, extends drivetrain life, and eliminates that irritating dry chain noise. No degreasing needed between applications — just a dry brush to freshen up. First-time users: start with a thoroughly clean chain for best results.

Don't let punctures stop you. Sq**rt Tire Sealant seals punctures from objects up to 6mm instantly. Ammonia-free, environmentally safe, and easy to clean — BeadBlock™ Technology keeps you rolling through whatever the winter trails dish out.

Sorted bike. Solid prep. See you on the start line! 🚴‍♀️ https://squirtcycling.nz/

Winter isn't the off-season... it's the power season. 💪❄️

Hey Crew, Coach Anna here - now... a lot of people see Winter as a time to simply "get through" their training, but I actually love Winter strength training. It's the perfect time of year to channel a bit more energy into building strength, addressing imbalances, improving movement quality, and making some real gains before the busy spring and summer adventures roll around.

My own training right now is pretty simple:
✔️ 4 strength sessions per week (2 upper body, 2 lower body)
✔️ 2 cardio sessions per week to maintain fitness – one shorter session and one longer session

Why this split?

Strength takes consistency and recovery. By training upper and lower body separately, I can give each session quality effort without feeling completely smashed. It also allows enough training volume to build strength and muscle while still having energy for life, work, and my 2 small humans!

The two cardio sessions are there to keep my aerobic fitness ticking along without competing with my strength goals. Aerobic fitness is much easier to maintain than it is to build, so winter is a great opportunity to shift the focus slightly and come out stronger when the weather warms up.

💪Strong legs make climbing easier.
💪Strong glutes make running and riding more efficient.
💪Strong upper body muscles help with posture, stability, carrying packs, bike handling, and reducing injury risk.

The best part? When everyone else is waiting for motivation to return in spring, you'll already have a stronger engine, a more resilient body, and a solid foundation ready to go.

So embrace the frosty mornings, lift some heavy things, and remember... Summer strength is built in Winter. 😉

We are always here to chat training team, get in touch anytime and let's get our strength on! 👊

WE ARE SUPER STOKED TO WELCOME ALPINE RECREATION ON BOARD AS A MAJOR SPONSOR OF OUR TEKAPO EVENT

As the days shorten and fresh snow begins to settle on the Southern Alps, many of us start looking toward new adventures to train for. I’m Elke Braun-Elwert — IFMGA mountain guide, director of Alpine Recreation, mum to two energetic young kids, and an occasional adventure racer myself (Twizel event Long Course winner). Based in Lake Tekapo, Alpine Recreation has been guiding and teaching people in New Zealand’s Southern Alps for over 40 years — from first alpine experiences through to advanced mountaineering, ski touring and avalanche education.

One of the most rewarding parts of guiding is helping people build confidence in the mountains. Whether it’s learning to navigate off-track terrain, gaining winter skills, or stepping into crampons for the first time, there’s something incredibly empowering about discovering what you’re capable of in the outdoors.

That’s why we’re excited to partner with Spirited Women Adventure Race for 2027. We’ll be sponsoring a major prize — a private 4-day alpine course for a team of four women — with options ranging from beginner mountaineering through to backcountry ski touring, avalanche training or alpine navigation.

For those already preparing for next year’s event, we’ve also created women-focused navigation training courses in the Tekapo area, designed to build practical skills and confidence in the outdoors.

Looking forward to seeing more women getting back into the hills, trying something new, and building skills for their next adventure.

FARMSTRONG ARE BACK ON BOARD FOR 2027!

Farmstrong is really looking forward to being part of Spirited Women again in 2027. It’s a great chance to get off the farm or orchard, step out of the day-to-day, and do something a bit different, have some fun, connect with others, and challenge yourselves along the way.

That’s exactly what Farmstrong is all about. We know taking time out, connecting with others, and trying something new are simple but powerful ways to support wellbeing, and events like this make that easy.

Last year it was great to see so many farmer and grower teams include Farmstrong in their team names and get behind the kaupapa. One of the standout things was hearing what the event meant for teams, not just the physical challenge, but the chance to reset, spend time with good people, and come away feeling recharged.

We’ll again be supporting the Farmstrong team category, with $100 restaurant vouchers up for grabs for all members of the winning Farmstrong team in each category (Short, Medium. Long) . If you have a farming connection in your team and want to be in to win one of these restaurant vouchers then simply use 'Farmstrong' in your team name. Team captains can do this by logging in and adding the word "Farmstrong" to the team name then clicking "save".

Farmstrong is a nationwide programme supporting farmers and growers to live well and farm well. We share practical tools and ideas to help manage pressure, build resilience, and stay on top of wellbeing, on and off the farm. You can also sign up to receive our fortnightly Toolbox Tips—short, practical mental wellbeing tips from other farmers and growers, backed by the science of wellbeing, that you can use in your day-to-day.
