Thats a bit like asking `How long is a peice of string`

Must do rides will be different for different people depending on Multiple factors........

Their location
The groups that they ride with
The type of terain that they prefer
The type of Adv Bike they own ( large or small )
The amount of money they can spend on a ride ( paid for ride or ride with friends )
Their skill level
The time that they can spend away from home ( work or family commitments )
etc..... etc......etc......


For me there are at least 2 must do rides every year

Dusty Butt
MMMMM

In saying that I have been on several great rides ( some paid for but most freebies with other KB members ) that i would definately like to do again.

Going to Bannockburn bike week next year, so that may be a must do ride for me in the future and I may give the Dusty Butt a miss in 2016.

Did a ride around the Wellington coast 4-5 years back where we had to build the track as we went which was organized by Paladin ( who is no longer active on KB ) & Junkman Joe.
That ride for me would have been a must do,but it was never held again.

Then there`s several of the Naki rides

The friday ride getting to the Dusty Butt, and some of the rides getting home from the DB.

And some of the local 1 day rides around the king Country - The west coast and the Coromandel Camp outs.

Writing this makes me want to go riding, Bring on the Far North adventure ride next weekend.:clap::clap::clap:

A must do for me once a year is up to the forks hut to the north west of lake Mavora. Brilliant ride, if you know where the secret track is.:2thumbsup:msn-wink:

yeh, mxnut, you are right on the piece of string, i guess a better question is "what are peoples must do rides and why?"

i always liked the DB1k and Waiou (sp?) school trail ride
