Hi, I’m Charlotte, a Kiwi currently living and working in the UK and a passionate dirt bike rider who has recently been selected to represent New Zealand in the Women’s Trophy Team at the 2026 International Six Days Enduro (ISDE) in Portugal, alongside teammates Rachael Archer and Bailey Newbould.

The ISDE is often referred to as the “Olympics of Enduro”, bringing together the world’s best riders to compete for their countries across six gruelling days of racing. The rider and machine must complete the 6 days to get a team result, and the bike can only be worked on by the rider during the event in short service periods. This year is particularly special as it marks the 100th anniversary of this iconic event.

Being selected for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to wear the NZ jersey and compete on the world stage is an incredible honour and a dream come true. Team New Zealand will be fielding Women’s and Junior Trophy teams this year, making it even more important for us to fly the flag and showcase young Kiwi talent against the best riders in the world.

While being selected for the Women’s Trophy Team is an incredible honour, the reality is that representing New Zealand at the ISDE comes with significant financial commitment. With no Men’s Trophy Team attending this year, there is less overall team funding, sponsor exposure, and shared support available. This means the riders are responsible for funding a much larger portion of the campaign ourselves, which is why every donation, sponsorship opportunity, and share of this page makes a genuine difference.

My journey in motorsport began when I was just three years old in New Zealand, where I developed a love for off-road riding and competition. After stepping back from racing for several years to focus on building my engineering career and moving overseas, I eventually found my way back to the sport with renewed passion and determination.

Since relocating to the UK, I’ve challenged myself to learn a completely new discipline of racing. Transitioning from traditional off-road competition into enduro and timecard events has pushed me outside my comfort zone, requiring new skills, racecraft, and endurance. Alongside a full-time engineering career, I’ve dedicated countless hours to training, racing, and competing at a national level to earn this opportunity.

Why I Need Help-

Representing New Zealand at the ISDE as a privateer comes with significant costs. Travel, accommodation, bike preparation, transport, spare parts, tyres, fuel, race support, and event logistics quickly add up. While I am personally funding much of this campaign, any support will help ease the financial burden and allow me to focus on performing at my best for New Zealand.

How You Can Help-

Any donation or share is greatly appreciated and helps Me represent New Zealand on an international stage.

Whether you’re a fellow rider, friend, family member, colleague, or simply someone who wants to support an athlete chasing a dream, I would be incredibly grateful for your support.

If you’re unable to donate, sharing this page would mean just as much and help spread the word.

Thank you for helping me take on one of the biggest challenges in off-road racing and represent New Zealand at the 100th International Six Days Enduro.

I’ll be sharing updates, race progress, and behind-the-scenes content so you can follow the journey all the way to ISDE.
