- **Event Description**: Come join us for our annual “shortest day, longest ride” full of laughs, shenanigans, coffee and food. 

This year is going to be a bit different with the spooners tunnel being closed due to harvesting. If it changes we will update the route. 2 options below.

Option A - Mapua - Richmond - Wakefield - Dovedale - Sunday Creek Road - Tapawera then back on the GTT over the baton all the way on the trail back to Mapua. This will be 182km.

Option B - Mapua - Richmond - Wakefield - Dovedale - Woodstock then follow the GTT as normal from there back to Mapua. This option is 138km so shorter than the full loop.

See you there!!
