Bridge Hill

This week we are helping out with the TransNZ Enduro, a 5-day epic mountain bike race covering some of the best riding spots on the South Island. We arrived on Friday afternoon to get to know the other crew and be briefed on what's involved in the role of course marshal.

The next day we had a sneaky preview of the first day's stages on a marshal pre-race ride which took us through some amazing native beech forest and had us all stoked for the next days racing! The first 2 days of the race are based in Craigieburn, just over an hour from Christchurch and feature an amazing variety of riding, from loamy beech forest, to steep exposed ski field scree, to loose dusty downhill tracks.

Two unbelievable days of racing went down before we started the long drive to Queenstown for the rest of the week's action! It feels like a return home for us after having just come from 2 and a half weeks of biking there ourselves, and we are excited to re-run some of our favourites!
