Our Story
Here's the deal. We thought it'd be sweet to give free gear hire to anyone who wants it this summer. So we've teamed up with our friends, The Boatshed in Days Bay, The Bike Shed Pencarrow, and Cycle Remutaka to cook up a plan.
Basically, we've worked out how much it'll cost us all to operate safely all summer. It's $300,000 - that includes staff wages, overheads and other operating costs. As soon as we hit that total, through gear hire, snacks, ice creams - whatever you buy with us - gear hire at all three places is free, for anyone, for the rest of summer. The earlier we hit that total, the more awesome summer days of free gear you'll have.
We're even counting vouchers in the total, so buy gear hire vouchers for Christmas gifts, or shout your mates - it all adds up!
In our book, summer ends at Easter weekend 2017. Let's get our costs covered as early as possible - so everyone can get their adventure on before Easter next year!
