If you mean Lester Yates and Shaun Prescott's ride at the taunagatra block just north of whangamata- itll be a doozy!
I missed last months one but many many many bikes came past my place.

Im taking 8 bikes- I have people hiring bikes for the day so I will be there at sparrows fart!

40 km main B grade loop with lots of A detours and the kiddies track
see you there!

Its that gyroscopic thing. Perhaps you'd better talk to Lester and get a fleet of Husabergs for the rental fleet.

It was a very nice track took me just over a hour to do the main A loop which i was happy with. Broke clutch cable 5km from the end after helping a quad up a hill. Did a 15km loop on a wr250 and that was me. I was going to go over and see who i thought was Cave Weta but he had his hands full teaching somebody to ride some red thing lol. :jerry: Good to see some sections quads can't use :niceone: Will be making the trip again
