"Let’s do what the salmon can’t do, ride across, up, across and then back down the river all in one day. "

CATEGORIES:

You can take on the whole challenge as an individual, or tackle the event in bite-size chunks in a two-person team.  Teams-of-two do approximately half each and change just before Mt Hutt Station.

Individuals

Will do the complete 103km!

Teams of 2

Teams of 2 will do approximatley half the distances each.  the cyclist doing the second ride will have the easier ride so if someone is looking for the easier ride then the second ride is easier.  The Teams of 2 are combined ages of the 2 competitors. Teams combined ages of 130,and 130 plus.

Team of 3

Just like the New Zealand Pursuit Team, get three friends together and compete as a team with each member going the full distance. Your combined individual times give the overall team time and placing. As a bonus, you'll get to compete as an individual as well - so you'll be in two categories. Get your employer to sponsor you and make a name for your business.

Clydesdale and Clydesdalesses

One for the big guys and girls, males over 100kg and females over 80kg (without the bike) and will be weighed after the race so you have to be a solid 100 or 80kgs.
