Join us at the Waitangi Mountain Bike Hub to celebrate Matariki with an evening of lights, bikes, hot kai, music, reflection and winter magic. Saturday, 11 July, 4pm-7pm.
Decorate yourself and your bike with fairy lights, glow gear, reflective items and anything that shines before joining a relaxed, family-friendly twilight ride.
The twilight ride will be approximately 2km / 30 minutes, suitable for families and young riders along the flat gravel road leading into the park. Riders depart at dusk, allowing participants to become familiar with the route before returning in darkness with the lights shining the way.
