Bushriders Mcc has a long running tradition of running Cross Country's. In the early days they were called Harescrambles that ran for 3 hours. Today they are a more leisurely 2 hour duration.
Many of the most successful offroad riders in New Zealand came out of this series. Great names such as Life member Jock McLauchlan, who in his hey day represented New Zealand many times in the A4DE and ISDE back in the 1980's.
Many others followed on to take numerous National Cross Country and Enduro titles such as brothers Steven and Ross Bird, and the Mabey brothers, to three time National cross country Champion Adam Reeves.
And then our most famous member, Paul Whibley, two time US GNCC Champion, & current seven time OMA champion. Paul learnt to ride as a young teenager at Bushrider events (winning the BRXC 3 times, plus 2 time NZ national Champion) before heading off to Europe riding in the WEC before being lured to the American GNCC events.
