Gold Creek Loop almost complete
This would be greatly appreciated. We wouldn't like to have extra work on top of what we have done!
This promises to be an awesome track that you will want to ride again and again......thanks
Under 14's get down to the bridge!
Another kids ride set out last Sunday from the Waitapu bridge car park following the road out to the estuary mouth and back, followed by a quick obstacle time trial in the car park, big thanks for Pete and Debs for sorting that one, I was more than happy sitting in the car park drinking tea after another week up at Canaan!
Back up the Hill!
Work continues up at Canaan on the 'Gold Creek Loop' track and steady progress is being made. We have now had 315 tons of gravel delivered, and we're slowly making our way through it, thanks to the loan of three power barrows provided by DOC..... looking forward to new visitors this week, as well as the usual suspects..........
Gibbs Hill Club Ride last Sunday
The sun shone, the sky was blue and there was no wind at all....
Where were the mountain bike riders...

Up Gibbs Hill, thats where !
What a great day. There were two groups, the fast and slow bunches.
We all had a great day out, met up with a number of Gibbs and Spring challenge trainers, no crashes, no arguments with walkers, and the coffee at the Roasted was so strong... Well done everyone, what a great turn out.
Thanks Peter Greer for the Pix.
For all those roadies out there!
It start's tomorrow, the biggest and best race in the world! Here's a piece of work from the Production company I used to work for.......enjoy!
checking out the good work in cannan
gidday,
well thursday night seen three keen riders pop on the night lights and head into cannan for a cupa tea and some world famous J.T,s home made bread. not a bad effot on the bread.
it was a grand old night, awee bit cold but there was fun to be had,so have it we did.
the new track work on the family loop is a wicked ride and for all levels will be a big hit , as it progresses up through the beach forrest onto the farmland before heading back into the beach forrest it is becomeing very clear how beautiful this trail will be.
5km to 6km leaveing and returning to the harwoods hole car park ,a easy circuit to follow for all.
well credit must be paid to the golden bay mountain bike club for all the good work that they are contributeing to this project in cannan downs, wicked and thanks for the work team. the once mountain biker, now digger driver, karl is doing great and had the wee digger all wraped up to keep the cold off, looked quite cute really.
so spread the word of this good work and come summer this will be ready to go and worth the drive or ride for the fitter ones to try this new trail.
go well , regaurds bruce

Sunday Ladies Ride
On a perfect winter morning 8 ladies tackled the great Rameka Project with great style and determination. We asceneded and descended on the trail, making good use of the single track. The trail is in perfect winter condition and holding up well. As always, a lot of fun was had and some technical sections well ridden. Great to see some teen ladies out there - good stuff girls!
Earning their twinkies today were Nikki B, Nikki R, Tracey, Pam, Holly, Talia, Kate and Melanie.
See you all next month.
