At the North Island Secondary Schools Mountain Biking Championships in Papamoa competition was fierce with up to 450 riders competing each day. For some, this was their first competition outside Kerikeri and others their first ever downhill race. It was fantastic to see our young students develop skills, maturity and confidence from their new experiences.
There were some top ten finishes, and after a lung-busting, thigh burning pedal-fest a podium finish for our Senior Boys Cross Country Relay team, William McNulty (Year 11) Liam Hoult (Year 10) and Zachary Trautz (Year 12) as pictured in lefthand photo, who came in third in the Cross-Country Event.
