Blue Mountain Races - start time 8.30am - making it a little easier for those coming from out of the area, although we do recommend staying overnight at Peel Forest it is a delightful settlement.

Didymo Risk !
The Orari River Catchment is a didymo free area and we want to keep it that way.
Mt Peel MTB Marathon and Blue Mountain Gorges Challenge are national events so there is a very real risk of spreading Didymo via entrants who have ridden in or near infected South Island rivers this summer.
All riders must wash their bikes & shoes, socks, leggings thoroughly before coming to Mt Peel. An alternative to washing is removal of any weed/algae and thorough drying for at least 48 hours.
