About goRide
goRide started with two friends who rode bikes with their two young families – around town (Nelson, NZ), along trails and on some big holiday adventures. These two friends are Annette & Jo. Both of our families made some great memories along the way but it wasn’t all smooth sailing (riding). At times we didn’t feel safe or confident or like we were getting better at what we were trying to do. Where was the help and support for women or families choosing to ride? So you guessed it we decided to create that help and support.

To find the natural crease line of your waist, stand straight with hands at the side. Then bend sideways running the hand down the outside surface of the leg. This movement will produce a crease at the waist so place your measuring tape on this crease. Return to standing straight and place the tape measure around your waist at your crease point (usually the narrowest part of your torso).

To find your inside leg measurement stand with heels against a wall. Place a book between your legs as high up as it will go. Move away from the wall keeping the book against it. Place a tape measure at the top end of the book and let it drop to the floor.
