Adventure ride at SI KB Rally

[Racing Dave]

Yes (as I said, the smaller the bike, the better), and there's another road known as Boardinghouse Road, not shown on most maps but an easy normal forest road, and that runs back from Kumara Inchbonnie Road to east of the southern end of Cockeye Creek Road. Useful if the Greenstone River is unfordable when you're trying to get out at the bottom end of Noname Road, to get to Inchbonnie. Much good fun to be had in this area, and don't forget it's always worth the ride through the tunnels at Napoleons Hill.

So, most of those trails and roads/tracks are all do-able then? Can one spend a good day in there and have some fun exploring? Ogilvies Rd as well etc...
Thanks...

Like I say it has been 20 years since I used to hoon around in there, but it was mostly passable. Did an enduro through there too come to think of it.
Am very keen to spend a weekend going over the old tracks.

They're two of my three favourite trails on the West Coast, and only beaten by Napoleon's Hill. They do change from time to time (depending on how the rain floods them), but in all the times I've been through, the basic course doesn't alter.

As always, the lighter/smaller the bike, the better.

I agree Dave - did Napolean Hill & the tunnels on the DT230 thank god, although Marks seemed to cope on his KLR. I admire the guys who can ride back up that hill although I suspect they have sharp knobblies, plenty of power & a bloody good run up.
I get the impression that parts of the Lake Aharua loop could be similair, especially if wet. It was closed with wash outs & slips when we were there.
