The Maunga 100 Cycle Challenge organised by NZ Rotary in conjunction with Te Awamutu Sports Cycling Club is an annual event that is becoming the benchmark for the more established Taupo Cycle Race which has been in operation now for over 30 years.
ps|studio DPI was approached to get involved in the cycle event early on, attending meetings, giving professional advice on photography and design and generally offering a helping hand for this large sporting event which believe it or not is only a few years old. The Maunga 100 is an event which the organisers hope in years to come will be one of the best cycle challenges in New Zealand.
They certainly put on a great event! with over 300 entrants over its 3 main challenges, a 12k, 30k and the almighty 100k Challenge, not to mention a Bikes and Trikes assault course for the younger enthusiasts. it proved to be a great mix of a pro sporting event and a great day out for the whole family.
The 100k Race attracts many professional and enthusiast cyclists from all around New Zealand.
Due to the scale of the event we had a total of four photographers joining in on the fun of capturing the event. Thanks to Dave, Jason and Mîchell for your help covering the event.
