Mountain Biking Otago Downhill Event
By Andrew Willmott | Posted: Thursday October 26, 2023
Mountain Biking Otago are holding a Downhill Race at Signal Hill on Sunday, 19 November and would love to see more entrants, especially school-aged riders.
They know that a large number of our students ride regularly on the tracks at Signal Hill, but not many are Club Members that they can contact easily. This event is open to everyone, not just Mountain Biking Otago members, and they would love to see you there.
