Hoiho Rides – Ride One

October 19, 2022 – 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm NZDT

You asked and we’ve listened. Introducing Hoiho Rides to our events calendar! These are social rides that bring riders of all stripes and abilities together to celebrate the many great riding areas we are blessed to have in our backyard…

This will be an eight part series bringing the riding communities and local businesses together. There are four rides planned for the spring and four more for autumn.

The Spring dates are:

19 October – Codgers. Brought to you by CGW
9 November – Codgers. Brought to you by Kate Ball Orthopaedic Surgeon
23 November – Cable Bay Adventure Park
7 December – Silvan Forest Mountain Bike Park

Details – Hoiho – Wednesday 19 October

Trail to be ridden:

Firball – a 2.9km grade 4 trail. This is a Nelson classic! The route will be marked with red flags to show you the way. The best thing is that you can ride as little or as much as you like of Firball! You can drop into Firball from the following places:

Firball Dropout
Middle Road
Wayne’s Passage

At each of these drop-in points there will be a friendly face and a small “treat” for the younger riders (and possibly the older riders!) to encourage them to keep going!

Times/cost:

Register from 5pm – bring $5
Ride starts at 5.30pm or whenever suits you
Post ride food starts from 6.30pm

At Firball Trig:

The CGW Jenga Challenge! CGW love an engineering challenge and they love riding bikes – can you leave the tower standing after riding to the top of the hill?
