Keynote speaker – Claudia Batten<\/p>\n
What High Performance Innovation looks like<\/h5>\n\n
In 2002, Claudia arrived jobless in NYC having left her corporate law career in New Zealand. Since then she has been on the founding team of two start ups which both had exits. First was Massive, a gaming ad network which was sold to Microsoft in 2006. Then Victors & Spoils where we pioneered crowdsourcing in an advertising agency. Havas acquired a majority stake in the agency in 2012.<\/p>\n
Claudia is also a recent winner of the World Class New Zealand Supreme Award \u2013 the youngest recipient to date at 39 years old.<\/p>\n
Her wins could have easily been losses without the belief that bad days bring out my \u201cinner street fighter\u201d Ultimately Claudia embraces life as a journey, and a very personal one.<\/p>\n
She swears she\u2019ll never fit a cookie cutter but who does? Be brave in accepting that life is not perfect and that challenges may arise at the weirdest of times but that only means that there is infinite potential to grow in any direction you wish. If you dare to ride the wave.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/b>Our shuttle goes through Featherston, where we collect riders from the Fell Locomotion Museum on Lyon Street, then across the hill to our first drop point.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
Drop 1) Maymorn Station\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n
This is our most popular and recommended start point for a one day ride on the Remutaka Cycle Trail.<\/span><\/p>\n
Maymorn to Cross Creek is ~25km. You pass through 5 Tunnels.<\/span><\/p>\n
Maymorn to Featherston is ~39km. You pass through 5 Tunnels and finish at the Royal Hotel, a great place for a cold drink (Most popular)<\/span><\/p>\n
Maymorn to Greytown is ~55km. You pass through 5 tunnels and will experience\u00a0<\/span>New Zealand’s longest suspension bridge\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/b>across the Tauherenikau River. Finish with a cool beer on the deck of\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>The Whiteswan Country Hotel<\/a>, a Wairarapa icon.<\/i><\/span><\/i><\/span><\/p>\n
Drop 2) Kaitoke<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n
Kaitoke is a popular starting point for locals who drive with their own cars – often it is busy and crowded.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Starting at Kaitoke reduces the distances above by about 7km, and cuts out two short, sharp inclines.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
What to expect<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n
We start with a shuttle from Martinborough to Maymorn that takes around 40-60 minutes, depending on pick-ups.<\/p>\n
From Maymourn you start with a short sharp incline, but the majority of the trail ascends with an easy 1:30 gradient.<\/p>\n
You pass through up to 5 tunnels during the ride and may cross two spectacular swing bridges. Along the way there is native bush and pretty rivers with great signage that provide excellent historical information.<\/p>\n
You descend from the Remutaka Summit Rail Yards to Cross Creek in Wairarapa on a steeper trail. It is still wide and well formed. Toward the bottom of the hill is a section of single track that some riders choose to dismount for parts of – it is easy riding with a couple of rough areas.<\/p>\n
Riders can choose to use the road or off road trail to make their way into Featherston.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If you choose to continue to Greytown, expect quiet country roads and groomed cycle paths – marvel at the longest Suspension bridge in New Zealand.\u00a0<\/p>\n
