The Netherlands Embassy Orange bike day will be held at Zenders again this year.
We love hosting this event and this year we are bringing out all the stops.

Dress in orange, bring the family and enjoy a free day out in Hamilton. Starting and finishing at Zenders you can choose from a short, medium, or long ride: 5 km, 15 km, or 55 km.

Make a day of it. The cafe will be open from 8am for breakfast, with great coffee and Dutch treats available throughout the day. From 9am onwards, the willow lawn will come alive with a bouncy castle and family-friendly activities.

Registrations and check-in begin at 8am, and there’s no official start time—simply set off whenever you’re ready.

There’ll be spot prizes during check-in, and our friends from Bike Waikato will be on hand to offer free bike safety checks before you ride.

Register on the day or through Eventbrite:
