What part of the country is he from?
Name doesn't ring a bell for me but I've never done a south island meeting or been up to Auckland to race since the 90s & they'd be lots of riders who don't do the north island series

That number isn't a nz number unless the first 2 numbers are reversed & then it would be an old mobile number, not sure if the 025 numbers work still but if you got a message from him it must still
