The 65-odd riders from across the New England North West and beyond rolled into Armidale on Wednesday afternoon where they pulled up stumps at the University of New England for the night.
The group are winding their way to Tamworth from Woolgoolga to raise money for the Westpac Rescue Helicopter.
The crew left Woolgoolga on Sunday before overnight stops in Grafton, Dalmorton, Guyra, Armidale and Walcha, and will finish in Tamworth on Friday afternoon.
The mountain bikers have raised more than $75,000 for the rescue service, climbing more than 4,000m and peddling over 450km, most of the time off the beaten track.
