ONGA ONGA SCHOOL TRAIL BIKE RIDE SATURDAY 17 MARCH
The Onga Trail Ride is a premier event on the trail ride calendar. This is a fundraiser for the Onga Onga School, and has been a successful and popular event for many motorbike enthusiasts.
The trail ride is hosted by the Onga Onga School but rallies the support and hospitality of the whole community to provide an unforgettable and challenging experience for 300 or so riders who dare.
This year’s loop ride provides an interesting variety of scenic terrain including farm tracks, across rolling to steep country and some river crossings (weather permitted) along the Ruahine Ranges from the Waipawa river to across other side of Tuki Tuki River and back again.
Depending on weather the track could change excluding the river crossings. And when you thought all the fun was over, country hospitality and good old-fashioned fun takes over with drinks/tea/coffee and our great delicious lunch and plenty of it!
This Trail ride is the perfect opportunity to bring the family along to experience Onga Onga’s hospitality and all the trail ride brings.
