Just a reminder that our last trail ride for the season is coming up this Sunday 23rd May.  See the coming events for full details.

Give your bike a once over to make sure it's in tip-top shape.

We will be having a fuel stop so bring a fuel container (clearly marked with your name and phone number) if you think you'll need it.

Unfortunately we wont know the distance until after Saturday marking out, as a small part of the track is being finalised at marking out.  But expect somewhere in the region of 60-70kms.

Just a reminder - never give anyone else your prescription medication.  It is prescribed for you and you only. 

And vice-versa - never take prescription medication if it is not prescribed to you!

It's incredibly frustrating for us organisers to see so many people turning up late to our rides. 
We organisers are onsite at 8am, so how come so many of you have trouble arriving before 10am??  Believe me we've heard every excuse and have caught a few out telling porkies too.  
It's not fair that people that arrive on time to have to be held up because so many of you turn up at the last minute, or LATE.
Sign in is open from 8.30am.  Please aim to arrive early - 9am-9.30am is a good target. 
If you really can't be bothered getting out of bed early enough on a Sunday, then you might as well stay there - because you may very well get turned away if you can't arrive on time.

Hi everyone, just a reminder that Sand Country Run is coming up later this month at Waitarere.  It's gonna be a fast flowing 60-70kms.

There will be a fuel stop so make sure your name and phone number are clearly written on your fuel can if you need to refuel part way round.  And remember to collect it after the ride!

Reminder - BE ON TIME.
