Long-standing 6- and 12-hour mountain bike race in Rotorua, probably first held in 1994 as a full-moon night race and revived in 2026 after a break. Riders lap a 5–7 km course through the Whakarewarewa Forest, solo or as relay teams of 2–5; the 12-hour race starts at 10 am and finishes at night. Classifications for men’s, women’s and mixed teams, a separate e-bike class and a tent city with festival atmosphere.
