Top downhill riders and weekend warriors are set to tackle a gnarly course under the gondolas on Mt Ngongotaha during the return of the Skyline Sprint Warrior.
The Skyline Sprint Warrior downhill mountain bike event is returning tomorrow after taking a break in 2015.
It was originally scheduled to be held in February, during the Rotorua Bike Festival, but poor weather forced organisers to postpone it to April.
Race organiser Adrian Ashmore said they hoped the weather would play ball this time around. "We are still crossing our fingers as the weather forecast for this weekend was looking a bit sketchy, but if we do postpone it again we will give 24 hours notice, on the Mountain Bike Rotorua Facebook page."
The all-day event starts at 11am tomorrow for practice runs and race runs begin at 2pm.
