It’s a little over one week to the first round of the Auckland Mtb Club’s inaugural SingleSpeed Sundays. This is an excellent way to get out an express your riding style or maybe even win some fancy prizes and some cash to boot.

With the entry fee as low as $10 get your bike out and let rip… Don’t stress, this is a low key event with no flashy bits, just turn up and ride. Check out our website HERE

Club Rides Update

Posted on April 8, 2011 by Edd

So here we are, a quarter of the way through the year already with hints of winter reminding us it’s time to stock up on firewood and dig the big duvet out of the linen cupboard. Another fantastic way to warm up is to get out on your bike and get your blood pumping, and our club rides schedule should give you plenty of opportunities to do just that! Read on to find out what we’ve got planned this month…

This Weekend (9th/10th April):

We’ve got a bumper weekend lined up for you with Mark & Kelly’s first Woodhill ride of the year on Saturday, and then on Sunday we’ll be hitting the Royal Albany trails (behind Massey University) on the North Shore.
