Urban Grinduro 2024

Urban Grinduro - October 27th, 9am Waimapihi/Polhill Te Aro

The Urban Grinduro is back for the 3rd time. Growing on its roots from the Hutt-based Boganduro it introduces riders to local trails, paths and alleyways they otherwise would not know about unless they were fleeing from the law ; )

There are a couple of completely new segments and some old favourites from previous editions. Strava tells me its 43% off-road and 57% on-road, that's in kilometres, not minutes, 46 kms long and around 1200 metres of climbing.


Files below were updated 10:10 am October 16th.

Notes
There is one place where the course crosses itself, so confusion could happen. This is where we first ride around Shelly Bay to climb up the trail to come down Jail Break, and loop back again onto Cobham drive.



Cafes
There are many cafes enroute if you feel the need to refuel. Quite a few in Island Bay, and one placed perfectly in Miramar after visiting the Wellywood sign. Little Bread Loaf is a good spot to refuel before the last section of the ride through Jail Brake and back down through Mt Vic. 

We finish at Shed 22 on the Waterfront.




Revolution Bicycles remain the gold sponsors.
Be sure to check out Jonty's shop at 69 Ottawa Road in Ngaio.
