Estelle talks to Kiwi who cycled the length of New Zealand for bowel cancer awareness

One Kiwi woman has cycled the length of New Zealand and did it for a great cause.

Estelle caught up with Joanna Sharpe, who recently set a Guinness world record after cycling all 2100kms of Aotearoa almost non-stop in just six days in a bid to raise awareness for Bowel Cancer New Zealand.

The Auckland-based cyclist revealed that she decided to take on The Long White Ride challenge after sadly losing a dear friend to the disease and says she hopes to help save even just one life by bringing awareness to it and encouraging people to get checked.

Listen to her full chat with Estelle above.
