The event has now been split into two dates: 4th March 2022 - W1 & W2 only AND 30th April 2022 - W6 only (teams must re-enter for the W6 event). “After much discussion we have decided to postpone the Mini, Midi and Mega races of the Whākaraupo Chase until April 30th. With Covid 19 cases ramping up, and the pressure this puts on the health care system, we feel a responsibility to do our bit to slow the spread and protect our community. The W1 & W2 race will still run this Friday 4th March at 6:00pm.Thanks for your understanding with this, as you can appreciate these are difficult calls to make. Ngā mihi, The Chase Team”
