Tuatapere eh, Watch out for a fella called Steve, on a VW trike,
hes a coonskin hat wearing bushman, ask him about the tracks you can ride.
He would have probably walked them with his bowie knife and sawn off shotgun hunting rabbits....
Love the ride over Blackmount to TeAnau....but not in winter

I did it on a grey tank XL250 honda. A great wee ride indeed.

There is no connecting road to the West arm side. A few have tried ... but the open chequebook of the road builders couldn't manage it. They did well to get as far as they did.

A walking track connects the two sides ... but the "walking" description ... over simplifies what is actually needed to cover that piece.

I did the borland on an old xl250 too. That bike dont look too stuck Jim, but then moving water does not help.
