Huka Challenge 2011 - Update

Heres the latest update on the tracks and course:

  • The relay change-over is at 40.5 km, and the full course is 82.8 km. (Last year was 40.3 km and 81.8 km, so very similar).
  • New track after the interchange is SH Fun so relay riders are straight into single tracks (NO road to ride up)
  • This year has old Young Pines (not Better Than P),
  • Kegress has 2 shortcuts to make it a bit easier
  • We are adding in the Day-Nighter extension on the end of the Rotary Ride
  • Then shorter Waikato River track (the one with the board walk) will be used - this is easier than last year

 

All the other tracks are in good order in fact the best we have ever had.

Pete M.


PS: Someone offered to everyone training for the event free book on MTB training, which is available for download here
