Come join us for a weekend of MTB fun in NZ’s capital of mountain biking, RotoVegas (Rotorua). Think a mixture of pine trees & natives, with pumice soil that drains so well and offers grip in all conditions. The Redwoods are a massive forest that covers many hills with an extensive trail network that caters for all from beginners through to the most advanced riders. Add to that 2 shuttle buses which enable you to climb to the highest points. You’ll understand why they call this a MTB Mecca 😁
Saturday is about all things retro; we’ll join the Retro Ride, so dust the cobwebs off the old gal and remind yourself why modern bikes are soo much better! We’ll ride a variety of trails that suit these bikes. *modern bikes are still welcome as aware not everyone is like me & loves the β€˜90s.
On Sunday we’ll navigate the forest with the assistance of the shuttles, so to enable us to ride the better trails.
Saturday’s riding location TBC. For Sunday
we’ll meet at the Mountain Bike Rotorua Tarawera Rd car park around 9am, for the first shuttle which starts at 10am.
We’ll spend the day riding with a break for lunch in the middle (food truck & cafe options).
This ride is open to most, MTBing experience is required and we’ll split into groups for each grade, so we can all have the fun we want.
Accommodation TBC we’ll stay at either Thermal Springs Holiday Park or Blue Lake Top 10 (camping options too).
Saturday night we’ll have a BBQ together for fun social times.
Checkout Strava from our previous ride.

Come prepared with enough food to sustain many hours in the forest. There’s drink stations throughout the forest, so you can refill your water bottle. We have Leo our resident bike mechanic to fix any issues that arise.
Checkout MTB Rotorua’s page for details and costs on the shuttles. We’ll plan to use about 5 shuttles each on the Sunday.

This is an all weather ride, so’ll go ahead no matter what the forecast is, unless it’s a storm and then we’ll postpone the ride.
