Merida Karapoti Classic

Based in Wellington's rugged Akatarawa Ranges, 10k north of Upper Hutt City, the Merida Karapoti Classic is New Zealand's premier mountain bike event. Combining a huge but achievable challenge with spectacular scenery and an awesome social scene, Karapoti is the event on every mountain biker's wish list. But don't take our word for it - enter now for New Zealand's favourite mountain bike race. But be quick... Entries are limited to 1000 starters and last year we had almost 1800 wanting to ride.
