Hutt Riders

Hello there people.
I have me a CR250 I ain't used in a while... I know

Want to take it out, but before I go on any treks It'd be nice to test it's reliability (after sitting so long). As I'm not good enough with the duct-tape & pocket knife to MacGyver my way out of any problems when "out & about", What I'm wondering is there anywhere (preferably towards Upper Hutt) which is large & fun enough to piss round on the bike for awhile (testing it's reliability & getting used to it again) yet close enough to the van park that should things go wrong I can just walk it back???
Any suggestions appreciated
Cheers

Sounds tempting (as long as you don't mind an utter novice on a bike of unknown reliability) But is this day or night? I'm one of these mon-fri daytime workers

cool, don't feel you have to go bending over backward to accommodate me or nothing. But yea if your doing an after 1800 I'm keen to tag along, finally kick the spiders outta the engine & get the pistons moving again + it'll help to meet someone else with a dirt bike (partly one of the reasons it's been sitting). Never done much dirt (always loved it tho) so I got a bit of learning to do
