A few weeks ago, Racers Edge hosted our first Women’s Gravel Bash, in partnership with Gallagher Insurance Challenge Wānaka - and what a blast it was!

A ride that welcomes all abilities and all bikes, we were stoked to see so many gals giving it their first go - or their hundredth!

Keep an eye out for our next edition, we’re cookin’ something up! 🧑‍🍳
