Welcome to The Country Road Manawatu Cycle Classic Website.

Saturday April 21st 2012

2011 was the inaugural Country Road Manawatu Cycle Classic and again this year we had a wonderful time working with an enthusiastic group of people from Palmerston North. Well done to everyone who entered, it is a great course, scenic, challenging. and you did it! A special big thankyou to all the sponsors, course marshals, volunteers and the team behind the scenes who helped to make the event successful. We couldn't do it without you.

We introduced a new 80k Solo womens recreational ride starting from Apiti and we believe this section of the event will grow.

Solo Recreational Rider - Aged based rider competition

The 2012 winner was Patrick Johnstone from Wanganui - congratulations Patrick.

 

The event is organised as a recreational cycling event, encompassing stunning rural Manawatu countryside and is open to all cyclists of all abilities.
