Armstrong Motor Group Festival of Cycling

In just five years Christchurch's Armstrong Festival Of Cycling has become one of New Zealand's premier cycling events. But for local riders, Lyttelton's spectacular but challenging harbour bays have been the benchmark dating back to the very first time a bicycle was seen in this country.

In December every year the Armstrong Festival Of Cycling sees more than 1500 riders taking on the feature 80 kilometre Harbour Ride. The route - from McCormack's Bay around the base of the Port Hills, over Gebbies Pass to the Lyttelton Harbour Bays before one final fling over Evans Pass and Sumner to finish back at McCormack's Bay - is an iconic tour with roots that hail right back to the earliest settlers and cyclists alike.

Armstrong Motor Group City Criterium:
Get ready for a taste of cycling Euro-style! Criterium racing is cycling's entertainment format. Riders race around a tight 1k circuit around Christchurch's cafe stip, with special sprint prizes along the way before a final mad dash for the finish. New Zealand's best riders will be battling for times and honour.

But there are all sorts of open and showcase events providing something for riders of all age and ability. So come out and try your hand at this traditional European style of racing. Or maybe just kick back and watch the action over coffee and brunch.

Either way, it's a great day.
