The Counties Cycle Classic returns this year on October 13, at Pukekohe Park Raceway. Once again, we'll be using the world famous V8 track to start and finish the races. For more information and to register to ride, visit: http://countiescycleclassic.co.nz/ The Counties Cycle Classic caters for all levels: serious riders can take on the 92km challenge, there's a 52km course for those looking for a bit of a challenge, and the shorter 42km course for casual riders.
