as well as Big River there is quite a bit of other riding around Reefton.

Waitahu River (just north of Reefton is great (its XF650's favourite track)

the hills to the south of Reefton have quite a few tracks and are well worth an explore.

As Ryan said - his advroutes web site has most of the good ones listed

You could spend a day up at Denniston, ride through to the Mackly river, there's also a few tracks to explore of the main one.
Napoleons hill, Lake Hotchstetter and surrounds, Cockey crk and No Name rd. I have been lost in the forestry out the back of Shantytown too, so that could be worth a look



WTF !! How did I end up in the off road section ?

You can't post the same thread in multiple forums. I merged multiple threads into one, the thread wasn't "moved".

If you want this in another forum, then choose one and I'll put it there for you.
