40km Mountain Bike Ride- Shantytown to Moana

Gold Trail is an amazing ride through the history of the West Coast and the Gold Trails that both our ancestors and many Chinese walked, in the search for their riches of the Gold of the West Coast. You’ll start in the history created of Shantytown.


Until the Gold Trail Mountain Bike Ride there had never been a peloton of mountain bike rider’s ride down the Main Street of Shantytown.


In 2024 we're giving riders 2 options for the race, 1 going up Cockeye Creek and the 2nd going up Mosquito Creek. Both rides are the same distance but Cockeye Creek is 30 minutes slower for the lead riders and up to 90 minutes slower for the tail end riders.


The last 24km of the race will be the same for everyone, just the first part differs. If you're a seasoned mountain bike do Cockeye Creek, if you're out to enjoy some of the countries best Untamed scenery then Mosquito Creek is the option.


With these 2 options it gives everyone the chance to experience the amazing Untamed West Coast.
