Training Partners & Sponsors
In the New Zealand National Road Cycling Championships in Nelson, Rob completed the 25km time trial in 35 minutes 47 seconds, this time would have earned him the Bronze medal in the World Road Tandem Cycling Championships.
Rob's main ambition now is to compete for New Zealand in the London 2012 Paralympic Games. The steps in 2010 he needs to take en route to achieving this goal are the Tour of Northland in March and the World Road Tandem Cycling Championships in July in Columbia, together with various time trials.

He needs as many cycling training partners as possible to do the long training rides, speed work and hill sessions on the tandem. If you are a competent cyclist and think you may be able to help, please contact Rob on
0212236111 or email robmatthewsmbe@vodafone.co.nz

To achieve his dream of becoming a Paralympic Gold medallist for New Zealand, Rob requires sponsorship to build a customised racing tandem, as the tandem he is currently riding is not designed to race at this level, it's nearly twice the weight of those of his world competitors. If you are interested in sponsoring Rob please contact Rob Matthews directly on 09
