WHY RIDE?
FOR A GOOD TIME
You will have an amazing time whizzing through the beautiful Zanzibar country side with a huge smile on your face being met by the warm hospitality of people of Zanzibar.
FOR THE CHALLENGE
Whether its your first time riding the courses or if you're coming back to beat your previous time, the challenge is well worth it and the experience is one you will never forget.
FOR A GOOD CAUSE
For every uphill, palm tree forest and winding pass we ride at the NZS we think it's important to give a little back. Read more about our cause this year.
