It is recognised that the Boys and Girls road race distances differ and while there are proficient riders in the girls grade it is a philosophy of CNZS to ensure the races are accessible to as many girls as possible. The comparative distances have been tried in the past and it very quickly became evident that this was not a positive approach.
Volunteer Programme
Schools are asked to provide one volunteer for every five riders, please register your volunteers in Enter Now before entries close.
