aro valley's favourite enduro returns
The Wellington Enduro Series returns to the swooping trails of Aro Valley and Wright's Hill, with the 2024 Waimapihi Enduro.
As with previous years, we'll have a hard and an intermediate course, with a mixture of the classics and some OG classics back in the mix. The race will have multiple timed stages, and a "king and queen of the hill" award for the fastest male and female riders.
ALEX CHRONIS MEMORIAL PRIZE
For the second year, we're honoured to be offering the Alex Chronis Memorial Prize for the most outstanding junior racer. Alex was a long-standing member of the Wellington mountain bike community, and once again we're grateful for the support of W H Worralls and Co for their support of the prize.
