Over the long weekend Riley Wills and Lewis Yetsenga competed in the Emerson Whaka 100, considered one of the toughest single day mountain biking events in the Southern Hemisphere.

Lewis competed in the 50km race for his age group and finished in a time of 3 hours and 37 minutes. 

Riley competed in the 100km race and finished in a time of 6 hours and 2 minutes to place second in his age group. 

A top effort from both riders, well done!
