ANNUAL EVENTS - North & South Island
Nomadic Weekend Away - South Island
Dates: 3 days Labour Weekend 23rd to 25th October 2021 - Santa Cruz Bicycles Nomadic Weekend away
UPDATE ON TRAILS:🚦 ➡️ Things are good, Craigieburn Trail Trust and I have had a bunch of discussions to make this work for all the Nomadic folk on route and all trail users over Labour Weekend.
🟠🟢
Things have been wet and a touch boggy to do a full " Rip into it guys it's OPEN statement", but with good drying weather ahead, some monitoring and a few route adjustments, plus a couple trails that will be recommended to avoid all together, things will all be happy at the gathering!
Loads of trail will be open and with a little care and respect for the softer spots we will all get our fill of the amazing trail that this unique alpine environment has to offer!
Conditions and information at the gathering will all be available come Saturday. 21/10/2021
UPDATE: Basically it's all go folks!
At Covid Level 2 outdoor venue is all good and numbers unrestricted, still the same basic stuff, 1m distance ( yes 1 meter), please don't come if you feel unwell, face-coverings are said to be "encouraged where possible" and wash your hands often.
See you all soon - Jamie 6/10/2021

Nomadic Weekend Away - North Island
Dates: 2 days February 25th to 27th 2022 - Santa Cruz Bicycles Nomadic Weekend away
Hello North Islanders and long-distance travelers, I'm excited for this event in the Wairarapa, I have a good feeling about it and what looks like a solid load of people that will descend on Rivenrock's trails and riverside camping!
Ready Nomads?
The new format for the North Island Nomadic Weekend Away began last year... Now we take you to this newly selected out of the way" MTB park in the Wairarapa - Rivenrock MTB Park is another special one, a newly created bike park, a father and son mission, on their family farm, it now sports trail goodness from native single track to berms, flow trail to jumps, plus great river swimming and camping as usual...this venue has trails for the family and shredder alike and will easily keep you entertained for a solid two days of fun!
There is a sweet shuttle truck that will be running as well as climbing trail options!
The plan is that every year I will find you guys, our nomadic family clan a new place, one less frequented in some great Kiwi landscape - imagine places like Gisborne or Wairoa...who know where next year... it's a nomadic touring event in other words.
