Celebrating Our 2026 Premier Partners – Helping Us Get the Mahi Done!

At Bike Taupō, everything we do comes back to one vision: getting more people on bikes and ensuring our community has world-class trails to ride, race, and enjoy year-round. That vision doesn’t happen without teamwork, and we’re incredibly proud to be backed by a group of sponsors who share our commitment to making a difference.

As we gear up for Craters Classic 2026, we want to take a moment to acknowledge and thank our Gold Sponsors. Their support goes far beyond race day—it directly fuels the mahi that keeps our trails alive and thriving for all riders.

BAYLEYS Taupō – The Classic

Bayleys have long supported Taupō’s sporting community, and we’re stoked to have them back driving the headline event, The Classic. Their backing helps us keep the tradition alive while continuing to grow and evolve the challenge.

Spark Business Hub – King Country – The Pumice Pacer

Innovation and connection power both Spark and cycling. Their support of The Pumice Pacer is helping us create an event that’s fast, fun, and accessible—perfectly in line with our mission to welcome riders of all abilities.

BFA – Aratiatia Adventure

Adventure is what mountain biking is all about, and BFA’s support of the Aratiatia Adventure means we can deliver just that—an unforgettable ride for those ready to test themselves on something unique.

With their commitment, every dollar raised through Craters Classic goes straight back into building, maintaining, and improving Taupō’s trail network.

So when you line up at Craters Classic 2026, know that you’re riding with the support of sponsors who believe in the same kaupapa we do: keeping our trails world-class and making cycling something everyone can enjoy.

Ngā mihi nui to our Gold Sponsors. Together, we’re getting the mahi done.
