Registration from 7:45am-9am in the Makara Peak carpark (except e-bikes)

Registration closes at 9am sharp, we suggest arriving early to avoid the queue. And if you all arrive at 9am, we won't get the race started on time! You’ve registered online, so all you need to do is check-in and grab your timing chip.

Rider briefing at 9:15am in the Makara Peak carpark (except e-bikes)

This is mandatory for all riders. If you’re not present for the briefing, we can’t let you race. The race starts in the carpark shortly after briefing.

e-Bikes

If you are registered in the e-Bike race, your times differ from above. Your registration window is 9:30-10am in the Makara Peak carpark, followed by a mandatory briefing at 10:15am and race start at 10:30am.

Parking

The Makara Peak carpark will be closed during the race. This is to keep everyone safe, particularly during registration and rider briefing. No surprisingly, a couple hundred bikes take up a lot of space.  

The overflow carpark will be open but very limited. If parking in surrounding Karori, please be courteous to the residents. We’ve not had a complaint yet (that we’re aware of) and we’re keen to maintain that record. Ride to the event or carpool if possible.

Race finish and prizegiving

The race finish is in the grass area at Mud Cycles, no later than 12:30pm for all competitors. Prizegiving is on the turf outside Mud Cycles at 1:15pm.
