I think at this point me and the boyfriend are looking to come down. Not sure on accommodation yet as still seeing who else is coming (one has family there).
Will be down Friday night.

I will be the one that is slowing the boyfriend down - easy enough to pick!

Thanks for posting this up otherwise I might have missed it. How does this ride compare with the Trail Blazer 2 day Epic Events did a month ago? I thought that was a VERY well organised / groomed ride.

Might have to pack up the trailer and head down.

i did pumice blast last year and from what i can remember, it was mainly just pumice roads with a couple of bush sections. trail blazer is definitely the best epic events ride,

I assume most people are still driving home but would like to hear how the ride went etc.

We were going to do both days but the weather turned to crap last night, and was still raining this morning, so flagged it, and came home early.

But all in all the team had a great day

I didn't ride, so took a few pics and vid clips, sorry the clips are not that good, only had a
little budget camera.

Saturday was great. Did the 50km loop and it was flowing but still bit greasy in spots but made for more fun.

Today was mud, mud and oh yeah mud! They had a smaller 35km loop open today but it was carnage (for me at least) as it got a bit of a hammering on the last 10km as it linked in with the end of the 50km loop that was open both days.

Was a great event and had a bit of everything with some hills and good declines but then some messy bogs that tried to swallow anything that went near them.

Will do more of the Epic events as really well run and clearly marked tracks
