The Big Easy Hawke's Bay Trails

The Little Easy Central Hawke's Bay

Easter Saturday 3 April 2021

For the 2021 Big Easy we have a NEW ROUTE that starts and ends at Church Road Winery in Taradale.

Riding out from our starting point at Church Road Winery, you'll head out along Church Road and through Taradale to the Hawke’s Bay Trails at Pettigrew Green Arena. After enjoying approximately 37km of tasty stops, you will finish back at Church Road Winery for the finale party and concert which starts at 2:00pm. If you take longer that's OK - it means you are enjoying all the distractions along the way!

The 'Family Start' features again, to help little legs (and some not so little legs) make it to the finish line. Starting at Farndon Park in Clive, the ride will cover approximately 28km, starting at 11.00am.
Transfers will be available for the Family Start, at the start of the day only. This will transport you and your bike from Church Road to Clive. $10 per person.

Adults $40 and Kids (15&U) $20. For that you get a top notch t-shirt, concert entry and access to the Big Easy deals on the route so you can sip, sup and savour your way along the ride. Keen to ride, but don't have your own bike? Check out these great bike operators deals for the Big Easy.
If you have family and friends wanting to join you at the concert, they can purchase a 'concert only' ticket for just $25 - kids concert-only tickets are just $5 on the door.

We'll see you on the Hawke's Bay Trails in Easter 2021!

The Little Easy

Good Friday 2 April 2021

The Little Easy offers two options:
- A gentle 12km meander on the Rotary River Pathway consisting of easy-riding limestone paths
- Or try out the Grade 2 mountain bike trail which runs parallel to the limestone paths

Starting from Russell Park, Waipukurau, riders head off along the southern side of the Tukituki River and follow the signposted trail to the Swing Bridge for refreshments and entertainment before crossing the Tukituki river, and returning along the northern side of the river, finishing up back at Russell Park.

Tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for kids (15&U) and include a Big Easy / Little Easy t-shirt.
Please make sure you register by 14 March. After this date, your preferred t-shirt size may no longer be available for selection during the registration process.

Get your tickets now and we'll see you on the Hawke's Bay Trails this Easter!
