The iconic Bike Wanaka 10 Hour held at Deans Bank track, Wanaka will be heralding in the mountain bike season on Sunday, October 22, attracting riders from all over the country.
The 10 Hour is Bike Wanaka's major fund raiser and all the money made goes to help build and maintain trails throughout the Upper Clutha.
For 2017 you can ride solo, in teams of up to 5 and we will be introducing a Singlespeed category for those who feel 10 hours is too easy. Racing from 9am to 7pm. For other mortals who feel they have been skiing too much and only just dusted off their bike, we will be adding a 5 hour solo category. This will start at 2pm so you even get to sleep in!
The Race Village will be humming with great music, food, coffee and the Bike Lounge mechanic station to sort out your ride. Wanaka Kids Club is hosting the kids zone with races and activities for balance bikers right up to the older pedallers.
The Bike Wanaka 10 Hour will be an awesome day out for riders, supporters and race volunteers.
