one of the guys from the old bull trailriders site is over here on holiday from aus , he's based in gisborne and wants to know if there are any good rides around the area.. he must be keen because he just brought a drz 400 to use while he is here, hes a good guy, and hes an experienced rider/racer,..i was gonna take him to thunder and kimmies but ive hurt my back..yeah i know PUSSY.. any suggestions of where to ride in gisborne would be great or if you need a riding partner im sure he would be keen
let me know on here and i'll give you his contact number

theres not a lot happening in the way of trail riding in the near future due to the dryness of the land and the whole fire risk thing the forest owners arent keen, however there is the local mx track which he would need to obtain a key for, or just going for a play out at browns beach on the dunes.
ordinaryly over the rest of the year there is a practice track down by the speedway, but that is also the rythm & vines carpark, so its now been flattened in preparation for that.
so really theres not much on offer at the moment around here for trail riding.
how long is he here for?
