Schools category new for Bike Wanaka 10-hour race

This year's Bike Wanaka 10 Hour race, held at Deans Bank on Sunday the 27th of October, has for the first time a Schools category. This is open to teams formed by four or more secondary school children, with at least one boy and one girl in each team. There will be prizes from our generous sponsors for the team that manages to cycle the most laps of Deans Bank in 10 hours. It's a fun event, with the team's encouraged to build great camps to base themselves at Albert Town campground - the race course will snake through these camps in each lap and this makes for a really fun day for all.
