One of the most iconic mountain bike events ever created in Aotearoa New Zealand is back!
The iconic Cateye Moonride is making its return to Rotorua and it’s set to light up Waipa with good vibes, fast laps, and full-moon energy!
The 12-hour race kicks off at 10am, followed shortly after by the 6-hour race. You’ll be looping a 5–7km course through the world-class Whakarewarewa Forest, with options to enter as a relay team of 2-5 or step up to the ultimate challenge, go solo for 6 or 12 hours.
There’s also a dedicated e-bike division for those who want to bring the power to the forest.
We have added extra layers of competition to bring the Moonride back include:
The Business House Trophy - think your business has got what it takes? Get it.
Whether you’re riding solo, teaming up with your crew, or entering the office squad for bragging rights, this is the ultimate mountain bike party in the forest.
