Te Waitere Classic
The Te Waitere Classic is a Mountain Bike ride organised as a fundraising event to support the Te Waitere boat club, an important part of our community.
The event has two course distances, providing exclusive access over private farmland. Every finisher receives an attractive medal specially designed to represent our unique area. Both courses have been designed to encourage mountain bike enthusiasts and leisure riders keen to discover our slice of the west coast

WHAT YOU'VE GOT TO LOOK FORWARD TO
Breathtaking views of Mt. Karioi, Mt. Pirongia, Waitetuna Wind Turbines, Mt. Taranaki, west coast ridge-lines, and the inlets of Kawhia Harbour. Access to private farmland not normally open to the public. A varied and interesting terrain.
