Cape to Kaitaia Cycle Challenge

Post author By claire
Post date August 10, 2018

It is a unique ride in that it is New Zealand’s northernmost Cycle Challenge. It starts at the beautiful Cape Reinga and meanders its way south down S.H.1 to Kaitaia. The hospitality is second to none here in the far north and we welcome you to join us on this annual pilgrimage….There are no sign posts to say which way to go…its just one straight drag south!

Along the way you pass by Waitiki Landing (the last store), Te Kao (which boast the largest ice creams in the far north), through Houhora (fishing resort), Awanui (home of the Kauri) and finishing in the lazy metropolis of Kaitaia.

The hospitality is second to none here in the far north and we welcome you to join us on this annual pilgrimage….

Come down to Rotorua, New Zealand’s Coolest Little Hot Spot, for a classic old-school club fun ride / race.

Two distance options – 43km and 86km, on quiet, rolling country roads. Take it as socially or as seriously as you like – and many DO take it seriously! Don’t be fooled by the supposedly easy distances! But if a cruisy 43km is more your thing then come down for a great morning and free sausage sizzle at the end.
