Ride Leader: Michael Stevens

The good people at WCRC have been hard at work carving out some new tracks in a freshly-logged, north-facing block at Riverhead, with new trails appearing seemingly monthly and he pump track is a must!

Driving from Auckland, the entrance to the tracks is on the left side of Old North Road (If you get to the Ararimu Valley Rd junction, you’ve gone too far). Park in the clearing on the opposite side of the road.

Meet aim to meet there by 8:45, start riding at 9am
