FREE ENTRY TO THE TUESDAY NIGHT RACING SERIES WHEN YOU ARE A CLIUB MEMBER

Club Membership 

Membership renewals will be open from 1st October 2024 and can be processed online through Cycling New Zealand. The new membership will be valid through to 31 December 2025.

  • You will need to select the basic Sports Membership option and then select Taupo Cycling Club to pay our club fees. It is a new process that has worked to help cover legality and liability for clubs.

  • We recommend enrolling under the Cycling New Zealand licence as it then allows you to add on further Racing ability if your ability requires it.

  • Also this is the best way to directly support the club and to cover the costs of our committee to put on more events and to support local riders trying to achieve their cycling dreams.
