get ready to risk it for the biscuit at the 2020 Belmont Enduro! #WMTBC2020
BAMBA-Duro is back on for 2020 with a few spicy new tricks to keep racers honest!
Come spend your Wellington Anniversary Day (20th Jan) the way our colonial forebears intended - by racing enduro mountain bikes. Supported by local legends Baylands Brewery, Marleen Wholesalers Ltd and Dirt Merchants, there will be both an intermediate and expert category using a mixture of all trails in the park. Race map will be released ahead of race day so you'll have plenty of time for #nottraining.
Medals for podiums and grouse spot prizes courtesy of our sponsors, thanks mates. Photographer Dan Sharpe (Visualsby.me) is on the lenses so you'll have some cool photos to show your mum. Good times guaranteed or your money back (disclaimer: not really).
