Kia ora champions,
NZSSC was Back, baby. In 2023 hosted in The 'Naki by the great folk from New Plymouth Mountain Bikers...

A big turn-out.
Sarah Pilkington got inked for the 3rd time and Shanan Whitlock took his 1st title and tattoo with Palmerston North winning hosting rights for 2024 - stay tuned...

13 years since we hosted the 2010 Singlespeed World Champs in Rotorua NZ (check out Weapons of Choice x 2 for some of the awesome rigs) after the 2008 and 09 Nationals. 
Lots of wheels over the trails since - 2013 Nationals and Anzacs in 2015. SSWC17 and then our first casual ride in November, 2020 for Tipu Wai and Mental Health...
Covid, still...however, we were back for 'Celebrate Life', another low-key ride for the Cancer Society of New Zealand, cycling back to 2013 when you helped us raise $5000 for them...

WE ON! 
Sunday April 24, Anzac Weekend
Bike raffle + auction of an artwork by Michael Smither + otd donations and auction =  $10K, $8K for Cancer Society and $2K to the Stroke Foundation.
