Firepit Thursday night racing series, presented by MyRide Motueka
Hot racing, chilled vibes.
Night racing at it's finest.
Think you know the Kaiteriteri Mountain bike park? Think again.
You'll be racing trails in the dark, more often than not, in reverse!
Guaranteed to get you second guessing.
After an hour of hot laps, you'll finish at the Fire Pit for a snag, a beer and a bunch of yarns.
What to bring...
You'll need your fastest XC weapon here and a lighting system that turns night into day.
If you don't have either, that's ok. Run what ya brung.
Gravel bikes might be ok. Trail bikes & E bikes are definitely ok. Kids bikes absolutely ok.
This is all about community : getting together, sharing good times and of course ....smashing your mates ;)
