Gorges Grand Prix

Saturday 11th October

Canterbury’s showdown — fast, fierce, and seriously rewarding.


The  Gorges Grand Prix  is the perfect tune-up before  Five Passes  and  the Southland Tour  : a proper  handicapped bike race  on North Canterbury’s best roads, with a  cash prize pool that’s the best we’ve seen in years  thanks to  Pringle Homes  .

Big prize money

$500 Fastest Time, $500 First Across the Line, $500 First Woman.

Real racing, open roads

flat-out for 20 km, rollers, a drag that bites, and a 500 m sprint finish.

Perfect timing

the pre-Five Passes and pre-Southland hit-out you’ve been hunting.

Limited to 120 riders

no faffing about; once it’s full, it’s full.
