We've been working together since 1993 when we wrote, illustrated, designed, laid-out, proofed, published, marketed and distributed the second edition of our best selling guidebook Classic New Zealand Mountain Bike Rides. We had so much fun producing the book that we decided to form a business partnership. We'd collaborated on a number of easier projects going all the way back to 1985.

Like most Kiwi kids, Paul, Simon and Jonathan Kennett grew up with bikes, mucking about and cycling to school in Christchurch and Invercargill. It didn't take them long to latch on to the idea of using their bikes to explore tracks and backroads all over New Zealand.

In 1989, Paul and Simon toured and raced in North America. In 1990, Jonathan and friends became the first people to cycle across Nepal to Everest Base Camp.In 1991, the Kennetts wrote Classic New Zealand Mountain Bike Rides. Fifty thousand copies and eight editions later, it is known as the mountain bike bible. The brothers have written a guide to road cycling, a series of biographies about famous New Zealand cyclists and a history of cycling in New Zealand. They also design and build cycling tracks. When the New Zealand Cycle Trail project was launched in 2009, Simon and Jonathan came onboard as advisers, and Paul provides website maps.
