Without their support, this event wouldn’t be possible.
Online registration for the 3rd Te Waitere Classic Mountain Bike Ride is now OPEN.
The “Waitere” Ride is mainly unchanged from the previous ride.
The second part of the ” Taumata” ride has changed to include more native bush and private farm land.
We are very grateful to our local farm and forestry owners who have once more given permission for this event to take place on their lands.
E-bikes are welcome. Just make sure you and your e-bike are practised enough to go off road. And remember: the Te Waitere Classic is not a race! Enjoy the ride and the views.
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
17km distance takes in breathtaking views of Mt. Karioi, Mt. Pirongia, Waitetuna Wind Turbines and the inlets of Kawhia Harbour.
The newly named and updated Taumata West course is approximately 50km incorporating the best of the 17km course and accessing new farmland. Taking in views to the West and South, as well as the beauty of the Kawhia South Harbour. On a good day 5 mountains can be seen. Mt. Karioi, Mt. Pirongia, Mt Egmont, Mt Ruapehu and Mt Tongariro
Steeped in ancient history, this historic eco-wonderland is the spiritual and ancestral home of the Maori tribe, Tainui. Cultural heritage seekers world wide are slowly discovering this rare eco-gem where you can still walk for miles on an isolated ocean beach without seeing another footprint in the sand.
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.
