INDIANA
Home of the Indiannapolis 500, Indiana is the eighth state on the Race Across America.
Craig will be three-quarters of the way to the finish line by the time he reaches Indiana. With a lack of sleep and constant pedalling since the beginning of the race, his body will be seriously hurting and his mind playing tricks.
It's up to his support crew to ensure Craig stays safe, while also facing their own exhaustion from being on constant call.

WE LOVE IT!"
Back in 2000 Neil Callahan and Ian Martella were electricians working for another firm. They believed they could offer a vastly improved electrical service in Marlborough if they went into business together.
Since then, their company has become the largest electrical business in Marlborough, servicing Blenheim, Picton, Marlborough Sounds, and Kaikoura. So Neil and Ian got the formula right from the start.
