Don Rusty. Lives in Auckland. Rides a Honda GL500, but is looking forward to getting his hands on a classic British machine.
Don has two young lads Hamish and Joshua and a daughter Briana that we are keeping an eye on as potential Rust. We had better let them grow up and see if they develop their Dad's love of motorcycling first though.
Don has been involved in all 20 Grand Challenge events. He has ridden and completed eight runs and been checkpoint staff, scrutineer, or cook in the rest.
Don made an attempt on the Grand Challenge on a 50cc bike only to be letdown by the spark plug he is holding - it ate a hole in the bikes piston. One of the stauchest Rusty's found everywhere from scrutineering section to kitchen to checkpoint. Can cook a fair old meal for the hordes as well. A photographer, he brings us some stunning pictures of events he attends.
