MARAMARUA CLASSIC MARCH 2nd 2019
The Maramarua Classic Vinduro is back for 2019, on Sunday 2nd March thanks to Greg Power and Power Adventures. Maramarua Vinduro traces its roots right back to one the earliest days of Enduros in NZ with the first running of the event in 1974.
All five Vinduro classes will be catered for bikes from the sixties to the nineties. However riders on modern bikes are welcome to trail ride the course, though you wont be scored.
The course will be approximately 70 kms. Two course options are provided. The Gold course will have a few harder terrain choices while the Silver course will be a little easier and shorter. A gourmet BBQ is provided at the finish. The event starts 10 am with sign on from 8.30am. Check out the Vinduro NZ Facebook page for more details or ring Greg Power on 0274454429
