Meet at fresh choice gravel car park and then shuttle over to Flora Saddle (1 hour 38 minute drive) and ride back to Upper Takaka via Barron Flat (40km).  This is a Grade 4 Back country ride (see attached information with ride description in GB rides on this website) which will take 4-6 hours depending on stops so bring your lunch.  Please note, if there has been heavy rain the night before the ride, the ride will be postponed due to being unable to cross the Grecian River.

Brian Sowman has volunteered to drive. Please RSVP your intention to join to Karen Le Sueur before the morning of the ride by messaging on WhatsApp, or a text message to 021 247 3353.
