New Board-Walk at Kinloch

Thanks to the hammer swinging building crew, who turned up on a perfect Saturday morning to nail down this "state of the art" structure.

Equally state of the art was the dozen of flat whites and muffins Pete Mc F. supplied to prove our working bees are well worth turning up for.

A big "Thank You" especially to Waverley Sawmills, who sponsored the wood, Placemakers for arranging it and Bramley Builders for organising the concrete foundations.

Track Crew News - June 08 Thanks to all the people who have turned up at working bee’s of late. We got the Rotary Ride fixed and open within a week only because people gave up some time on a Saturday morning to help us. Plus the Buzzard is much better to ride now the rutting has been cleaned up. Bike Taupo can’t do all the work by themselves on the budget we have we just have to many Kms of tracks so it’s great when we get help. Seems to be a lot of riders around Wairakei, was very busy on Saturday, if you are a local and you see people looking like a stunned mullet at a sign post ask if they are lost and show them were to go.

The latest trail to be completed in the Wairakei Forest is now open, thanks to the efforts of Peter Lockwood. This trail is within the Young Pines block and provides a good flowing single track with a few surprises. The track start is signposted from off the Young Pines track. Peter has worked on this project for the last few months, often relying on his head lamp to work well after dark.
