Been there quite a bit, but not for some time now...
50 mins drive there and back was just too much for me.
Much prefer riding on the road now.
I'm quite keen on the 12-24hr team night rides at Taupo and Vegas tho

Yea bro!! I reckon I have as much fun riding my MTB in woodhill as I do on a road ride on my Gixxer.

I busted my forks a few weeks back... :weep: Can't wait to get my fully adjustable triple clamp USD forks. :2thumbsup

Just post up a ride on a Sunday and should be able to make it. Not this weekend tho cause I won't have the bike ready by then.

If your into Urban rides then let us know as well.

Don't get out on the MTB as much as I'd like, but it's something I still enjoy. We used to make a weekend of it, with trips down to Taupo and the bike park at Rotovegas, but haven't done that for qutie a while...

Got a few good riding areas in the naki and its great that I finally could afford a bike that was not going to break when I tried to hammer it :eek5:

I used to go up there every couple of weekends, but no more since my bike was stolen.

used to go out 2-3 times a week with a few guys to the Bottle lake Plantation but spent the insurance money motorcycle racing so I guess I'll buy another one later in the year

No worries man, I am also new to the scene. I've only been there twice so far myself. I am sure you'll be flying out there and showing us how it's done with your MX experience behind ya.

Loosebruce is the MTB master. :not:
