National School Community Race

Overview

We’re excited to be delivering a National School Community Race. Anyone can enter this event — you don’t need to have kids racing Nationals or be connected to the schools in any way.

This event is designed for mums, dads, family friends, and ex–high school riders who are in Tauranga during the National School Championships.
