We welcome E-bikes to all events. \nTo help us allocate numbers and get the race database organised before the first race\, we encourage club members (or members of other MTBNZ-affiliated clubs) to enter for the series online before the first race. As another incentive to enter online\, you will get entry for the four-race series for the price of 2.5 individual rounds. You can also enter on the day (Cash Only). \nRound 1 (11 May) and Round 3 (13 July) are being held in Pauri opposite the prison off Pauri Domain Rd. \nRound 2 (15 June) and Round 4 (10 Aug) in Foxton. \nCost is $10/race and $15/family for members of our club. Online is $25 for the series and $50/family. \nRegistration for U13 is 11am-12.15pm\, 12.30pm start. \nRegistration for U15+ is 11.30am-1.15pm\, 1.30pm start. \nThe short course is about 3.5km and the long course is about 4km.
