Free rides with Over The Top Adventures!

**cave weta** · 29th April 2008, 11:30

Now that the tourist season is over I would like to offer you guys the chance to bring the kids or the wife or your mistress for a Muddy Good Time!

Riding has been busy over the summer with one or sometimes two Gold Discovery Tours each weekend and some mid week blasts for overseas tourists too! Over The Top Adventures now has 9 rental bikes and Two 4x4 people movers to get you between riding areas- so no licence required! Many of our riding areas are unavailable to the general public and offer coast to coast views and some really cool mining and logging relics like steam engines and huge crushers.

The chance to explore abandoned mines and even ride your bike underground is not to be missed!

Why dont you put a group together over the winter and come for a play?
1/2 days we ride at one location near Waihi with loads of variety, awesome views and lots of gold mining heritage.
The full day gives you a full 8 hours of Enduro style riding. we ride the Neavesville Track, Maratoto Track and Waitekauri Gold Fields. We have lunch at an award winning winery in the Karangahake Gorge and a quick look around the ruins close by. Ill bring you back to Waihi just on dark. Our photographer will provide you with a CD of photos of your entire adventure at no extra charge.

AND HERE IS THE BEST BIT...... If you bring 3 mates, your ride is free!
your bike hire, your lunch, your beers, your snacks, your photos. You will be treated like royalty...... Ill even pull your bike out of the bogs myself!
Of course you are welcome to bring your own bike and gear but we have all the gear here to fit out whoever you bring with you.

Im going to throw some photos up now but my Dial up is a bit slow so if you have any questions fire away!

When you say your ride is free is it one rider or the group.

Seems almost compulsory to show some of the many, many embarrasing moments from this summer's rides!

of course most of the time Im up the front and miss this stuff so I intend to give these guys and girls their full 15 seconds of fame!

you can look a little longer if you like and really make them squirm

Could be fun. How about a Coro trip taking in some gravel on the Saturday, then a 1/2 day trip with CaveWeta on the Sunday?

Cheers

Sounding real good.

**cheese** · 29th April 2008, 15:55

So what are the costs for my mates? Why don't we try and do a Kiwibiker thing and we all bring our own bikes and you work out a tour price?

Just what i was thinking what cost is there for takin your own bike and large group discount then just split the cost between everyone make it cheaper been lookin at doing one of these rides for the last year or so.

EXCELLENT IDEA CHEESE!
Im limited by DOC to 10 riders at a time in one heritage area, and honestly - groups bigger than that get a bit hard to shepard underground! And lunch too is easier and quicker with a small group.

Usual prices for own bikes is $90 for the half day and $250 for the full day. I can do a KB deal still with all the trimmings for $70 1/2 day or $180 full day.

Im happy to put on as many rides as required but will have to be groups of less than 10.
The riding on the peninsula gets pretty gnarly in the winter so it would be real
blokes only unless it gets 4 or 5 days to dry out.

If you guys sort yourselves into groups of between 4 and 10 then contact me at stuart@overthetopadventures.co.nz then I can send all the guff to your group with entryforms and further info.

Geez Cave Weta - I've been on the floor in stitches at those photo's for the last half hour - awesome stuff - the guy in the top photo is the best thing i've seen for a long time - and check out that poor expansion chamber !!!!!!!! and the rear shot (literally) of the guy( i hope !!) on the quad - priceless - is he trying to start it or is he farting !
Anyway - just to clarify, so far i've got me ( will use opportunity to have a go on one of your KTM's) the mrs (who's inspired by the german lass)and two mates who've been banging on about getting back into biking for ages interested - so all the trimmings etc with gear for half a day - how much will that cost ( forgive me if it's on this thread somewhere but i can't get past the photo of that poor f******r face down)
Cheers
