Toko School's annual Trail Bike Ride takes place in March.
A long-standing school fundraiser will bring plenty of muddy fun.
The Toko School Trail Bike Ride has been an enduring tradition, says school principal Kim Waite.
“It’s been a part of the school for as long as I can remember - the trail has always run.”
The trail ride isthe school’s annual fundraiser, with the raised money going towards providing quality resources for the pupils. She says the event is always popular, with over 200 riders attending one event, and over $8000 raised at a previous event.
“It’s well-supported. The event wouldn’t be as successful without the help of the Friends of Toko school committee and the farmers who open up their paddocks for the event.”
There are two courses running on the day, making the event suitable for both adults and children.
“The adult’s course is 30 kilometres, starting and finishing on Toko Road. They will go over different farms. The kid’s track is a loop in a paddock where parents can supervise their children.”
People can replenish their energy with barbecue food and drinks.
