This 75km adventure event combines sealed and unsealed surfaces and showcases some of the unique points of difference and scenery that the Taupō district has to offer.Using local MTB tracks, gravel roads, farm tracks, and tar-sealed roads in the region, this event is all about the experience, but it also features a timed hill climb and sprint stage for those with a competitive spirit.
You’ll be fully immersed in all the event day hype and be well-appointed to soak up the atmosphere of the after-match back at the event village where you can celebrate your ride and swap stories with other riders and supporters.
Think you’re the gun male or female rider? You could be in for some prize money.
