Grins & Gravel <20/01/2024>

A gentle introduction to the joy of gravel grinders with a number of café/bars to relax, rejuvenate and rest at.

We start at 9am in Motukarara.

This is a great introduction to gravel riding, it is mostly flat 65ks with a bunch of gravel sections, a bit of highway and a number of quiet rural roads.

Distance – 65.9km
Elevation – 219m
Surface (approx.):
Paved – 53%
Unpaved – 47%

This will be a semi-supported, no drop, guided ride with a café stop at the beginning and end. We have an awesome picnic lunch spot, but you have to bring it along with you!

Perfect for the person who hasn’t ridden on gravel before and wants to in a no pressure group. Or just a social play with friends new and old. It’s not a race!

Road bike, adventure bikes, fat bikes, mountain bikes, e-bikes and everything in between welcome.
