The Rangitikei River Loop Classic was held on Sunday, October 24 in near perfect conditions. The ride starts in Hunterville and immediately sends riders up the Rangatira Hill, this sorts out the bunch very quickly and much to his surprise Mark Waterland led the riders over the top of the Rangatira Hill with locals, Kent Croote, Steve Stannard and Brent Bismarck close on his wheel, along with Josh Page (the last winner of the Twins Peak tour) and one or two others.
