For anyone who doesn't know what this is check out http://www.thefarm.co.nz/
We're goin up for 5 days and have been told there is heaps of camping space available for anyone interested in going riding for 5 days within 1000 acres of farm land!! It's dirt cheap (pay for only the campsite) and it should be an awesome weekend!!!
Anyone keen?

I really don't know about the northland loop ride, but we just rang them and there's plenty of room for everyone and ..fresh milk! My son will be bringing his guitar, we're bringin marshmallows for the camp fire, my daughter is looking forward to riding the horses and we're all lookin forward to riding the tracks! And theres heaps of other activities to do in between.

Have fun

Takitimu would be the best person to advise and Leehoon said he was going up in December for a second opinion.

hey well if you're keen you can throw the bike on the trailer (theres room for another one or 2 at a squeeze because my bike died) but we won't have enough room in the RVR for 5 (4 seater) so you'd have to jump on cheeses wagon lol. We're going as long as mum house sits for us.

We had heaps of fun at The Farm on this ramp! The MX track was poor to average. We only scratched the surface of what the trail section has to offer, im hoping to go back up in Feb with Westie and find the 100s of acres of trails that we missed out on.
