Bike Geraldine

Built by locals.
Ridden by everyone.

Bike Geraldine is a community-led group that creates and cares for Geraldine’s off-road trail network, catering to riders, walkers, families, and visitors.
 

From the Orari River tracks to the new mountain bike park taking shape at Riddell’s Reserve, we’re building spaces that get people moving, connecting, and proud of where they live.

Geraldine’s MTB Park Is Rolling Into Action.
Get Ready To Ride!

The first part of the build kicks off soon at our home at Riddells Reserve. 



 

Five purpose built tracks designed for every rider, from easy flow lines to double black descents, this is the start of world class right here in Geraldine.



With the groundwork starting soon we’re calling our community to take the project from good to epic. Every dollar, every volunteer and every shout out helps us turn Geraldine MTB park into a must ride destination in South Canterbury.

Building Something Bigger Than Trails

A community powered MTB park that’s putting Geraldine on the map.

This project started as a local idea and has grown into a movement. A professional trail building crew is ready to start shaping five incredible MTB trails and a shared path for riders and walkers alike.
