Returning for 2023, the
Yeti Trans NZ, presented by
Lazer Sports is back and better than ever. A six day all-inclusive enduro stage race, riders experienced a week of blind racing on the best trails New Zealand's South Island has to offer, from Craigieburn to Queenstown. This year we were stoked to be joined once again by our international friends, who, from as far as Scotland to Singapore and Vancouver to Wellington, joined us on our adventure in
Aotearoa, The Land of the Long White Cloud.
Now that the dust has settled, the bikes unpacked and legs firmly rested, its time to time to check the cameras and relive the action. Read on below to follow along on our epic journey across New Zealand one trail, beer, and banger at a time. As the Kiwis say, how good!
Day 1 — Craigieburn
Rolling out as the sun broke above the horizon, it was an early start for the course crew and media squids.
Day 2 — Craigieburn
Mud, rain and roots were the flavour of the day.

Day 3 — Coronet
Day 4 — Cardrona
