Yoyo!
Didn't know where else to put this thread.. Pretty new here :)
Well, I made this thread as im after some people to ride trail ride with. I've been riding for around 4 years. I usally ride at woodhill, but have started to ride the trails at Maramarua.
Is there any experienced riders out there that wouldnt mind a tag along each weekend ;D? It's never as fun riding by yourself!
I live out West Auckland.
Currently riding a YZ250 07 which is pretty sick! Hopefully upgrade to a later model :D!
Launch me a PM =)
Cheers!

Be nice Daffyd!- Dont break the boy!
I wish I could come but I have to get a lot of work out of the way over the next two weeks. After Dec 20 Im going to be riding nearly every day, Ive got lots of track maintainance and customers each week and ive got invites to ride at Thunder and Kimmys. Ill be keen for mid weekers if you get bored.

Ye let me know when you have a space free on one of your tours it was some good riding last time, I’m keen to do those 8 river crossing again were all the trees had come down. And a place called the stadia or stadium.

Canoe creek is all clear . we went in with big chainsaws three weeks ago and carved a new loop at the top end of it. I counted 18 water crossings in total!- remember last time when I ended up in the deep water on my back- ha ha!! my camera has survived it! and we now have a long narrow,twisty slippy rutted hillclimb that is about 500metres long. Then a long singletrack descent back to the river again through the ferns and pinetrees. you will love it.
Stadia has been tidied up by Transpower - they have been in replacing power lines. its piss easy now.

One hour East of Hamilton Vazza- its down maratoto road off the Thames - Paeroa road.
Im told that if you are Chris Birch or Daffyd Roberts you can ride right accross the ranges and come out at whangamata- we should form a posse and do it this summer.:wari:

I’m up for anything. 18 river crossings sounds just like my type of thing what’s the hill climb like at the end.

Hey Vin, me and my bro are up the sandpit most weekends, he lives out west too, the more the merrier, he's an absolute beginner :bleh: though.
we normally try to get there at 9.00 and home by 2.00 ish due to family stuff.
Send us a pm if your heading that way.
Xmas holidays we will hopefully get out of town a bit more.
Cheers
