History & Photos
MTB Chicks was hatched with a first ride at Makara in May 09. Since then the mailing list has grown to over 60 and we have had around 5-10 on each ride, including several regulars. Whilst we are about going out for a ride rather than racing, a few people also competed in the PNP Spring Series '09 with several podium finishes in women's recreational class and taken part in other events such as the Ak Attack (mtb orienteering), Rotorua moonride, Karapoti Classic and the Revolve Autumn Series
