Apart from supporting each other on the start and finish line - we will have a group dinner out on the Saturday night.
Accomodation - With 6000 riders in town, accomodation will be at a premium so book early as places will book out & prices will rise. If you are travelling solo, make use of the comments section below to arrange accomodation with others.
Motels are booking fast with some motels asking minimum 3 night booking. It pays to get in early
Taupo Cycle challenge:
Costing anywhere from $59 to $219 **for early bird pricing which increases from 1 August
I have managed to secure 15% discount off the registration fees for riders that ride with ACG whether that is MTBing, Gravel ride or Roadies. If you send me a message I will respond with the code, add your mobile number and I will add you to WhatsApp group for Taupo

When registering indicate your team as
ACG Roadies
ACG MTBers

You dont need to ride as a group - it would just be good to get ACG presence out there.
Any questions or comments please ask in the comments section.
I will no longer be riding Taupo this year or organising group rides In the lead up. Will still keep this event listed for attendees to make contact with each other/arrange dinner on Sat night.
