Mountain Biking

Mountain biking can generally be broken down into the following categories: cross country, all-mountain (also referred to as "Enduro") and downhill. 

There are lots of events throughout the year, please contact swatts@eggs.school.nz if you are interested in entering. 

Key Season Dates & Information

Epsom Girls Grammar students have the opportunity to enter into a number of Mountain Biking events throughout the year. The majority of these take place in Terms 1, 2, and 3.


Due to the logistical difficulty of transporting bikes, it is important that students participating  are accompanied by a parent of caregiver. 


Please contact swatts@eggs.school.nz if you are interested in entering.
