EVENT INFO
|
The Whaka Kids 5km event is open to 5 to 10 year old shredders. Starting at the same start line as the main events, the course is designed especially for the little rider in mind.
While the other events are deep into the forest, our little riders get to ride the same start and finish as the grown ups plus all the international pro riders come along to ride with the kids too, a truly special moment for everyone. Give them a taste for MTB events they will love! |
