The wheels have fallen off a cycle race planned for this weekend, due to red light restrictions.
It was all go for the two day Whaka 100 events in Rotorua this Saturday until organisers say permission to use trails in Whakarewarewa forest were pulled because of Covid concerns.
Almost 2,000 people were entered, in what would have been the race's 15th year.
Paul Gunn from Nduro events, which runs the race, talks to Lisa Owen.
