Welcome


Kiwarrak State Forest	Green

Manning-Great Lakes Tip Riders is a newly formed mountain bike club catering for riders in the Manning Valley and Great Lakes regions on the Mid North Coast of NSW, Australia. Primarily we ride in Kiwarrak (pronounced Kye Warrick) State Forest (with over 40km of singletrack) a mere 7km from the Taree CBD. Ultimately the club aims to liaise with State Forests of NSW and Greater Taree City Council to promote mountain biking in Kiwarrak and put the region on the map as a destination for both racing and social riding.

Keep up to date with the goings on in the club by registering your interest here.

Ride for Emma

This weekend just gone was our Ride for Emma fundraiser. This was a 24 hour charity bike ride to encourage Emma in her battle with Leukaemia.

When our club was formed almost 2 years ago I had visions of us getting hundreds or thousands more people riding in Kiwarrak and for us to be a Mecca for mountain biking bringing heaps of new tourists into our area just to ride our single tracks. It didn't occur to me at all that the club would bring together people who were both compassionate and passionate enough to give hope to a sick girl.
