Give It A Go MTB Workshops are happening again!!

Do you have a wee ripper keen to have a blast out at Eskdale MTB Park?

We are pulling together the program again for the Sept school holidays and Christmas Holidays and offering free (yes free!!!) programs for our Tamariki.

If you have kiddos who would froth over this opportunity DM and I'll let you know more details.

The last bunch of crazy cats had a blast, so let's do it again!!

Sorry, my bad but it is aimed for kids up to year 6. (Not 8!!)

Keen for more of these sessions? Oh, go on then!!

Have a young one who wants to get out on the trails and give them a go? It's hard if parents don't ride to know where to take them that's safe, where does the trail go, am I going to lose them ... its all questions that Katipo can help with 😉

This is the 2nd round of these sessions coming together for the upcoming season. The last round was awesome!!

They are aimed at beginners.
The riders need:
1) a bike that fits them
2) is suitable for riding off road
3) 2 working brakes
4) helmet

and a fun attitude!

Get in touch...DM 👌

So fabulous having our mtb park back open again Pan Pac Mountain Bike Park
Has been a long 14 months but the hard work from those involved have given the cycling community somewhere pretty darn cool to play and call home!
Thanks Hawkes Bay Mountain Bike Club

POSTPONED!
Seems my emails are not getting through to everyone. More information to come with new date.

Unfortunately we still do not have access to the MTB park so have decided to postponed all rides till the April School Holidays.

Will be in touch soon with information to those who have expressed interest.

Sorry team 😔

"Give it A Go" MTB Workshops

Due to the park being currently shut for felling our workshops have been postponed again!!!

I'm sorry to mess all the shredders (and parents) around but it's just not going to happen this weekend.

So new dates are 3rd March (2 sessions) 9th March (2 sessions) 10th March (2 sessions).

If you want to message with preferred dates I'll lock those in.

Fingers crossed this will be the last date change!!!

Super stoked to "finally" have the opportunity to offer these one-off 'give it a go' mtb sessions for our super cool little shredders out there.

It's been a long time coming (with no thanks to Cyclone Gabby) but with the support of Sport Hawke's Bay and Tu Manawa it's happening!

Keen for your little ripper to have a go and meet some other pretty cool rippers as well, DM.

There are a few spots left.

Dates: 4, 24 or 25th Feb
Age groups: 7-9yr (morning sessions 9-12pm) & 10-12yr (afternoon sessions 1-4pm)
Venue: Panpac MTB Park - Waipunga Road
Cost: FREE 👍

Definitely worth a watch. So very true working in the bike industry. But sometimes you just have to suck it up to be part of something pretty darn cool 😉
