  Prize Giving Last Year

 

Helmets must be worn by all participants and there is no cost to participate.

 

Registration begins 8:30 am at the Okaihau Bowling Club (Settlers Way, Okaihau).  The ride starts at 10:00 am and will finish on Taheke Rd (SH12),Kaikohe.    From there you can ride into town to the prize giving which will be held at the Mid North Motor Inn (155 Broadway, Kaikohe)

   
 
   

If this year’s event is anything like last year’s inaugural event, then it will be something that should not be missed.  There will be spot prizes, but the greatest reward is the participation with family and friends, and the great scenery on the way.

 

Except for a short section at the start, the ride follows the old rail line and is an easy ride, with a gentle slope to the tunnel and then down to the finish in Kaikohe.

 

It is not a race so you can ride at your own pace, enjoying the scenery, the native flora and fauna, and the company of your family. 

 

All ages are welcome.  For more details clikc here.
