On 6 October, two students competed at the 2018 North Island Secondary Schools Mountain Bike Cross Country Championships in Tauranga.  Austin Zou (Under 13 Boys) competed in his first mountain bike event & finished a very technical cross country course.  Jake Earnest (Under 14 Boys), normally more comfortable on a BMX or Downhill mountain bike, borrowed a bike for the event & finished strongly in 7th place against some tough competition.  Both boys were happy with their efforts and had a lot of fun at the event.
