Track Crew News - December 2008

Now that the Huka Challenge is over we can breath again. A very big thank you to all the mountain bikers who turned out to help us run the event. We could not have run it with out all the help we got and you were all legends in the amount of work you did 95% of the course was cleaned up by the end of the day
The Huka race achieved  what we set out to we broke a few bikes and bikers but every body had a ball on the tracks. 

Other news is that we have the full funding from The Lion Foundation and Southern Trust  to finish W2K and have started working on the other end of the headland track.
The Headland track is the best part of W2K so check it out. The older part is 5 Kms long and the views and trees are stunning.

Carwins track "May's Maze" is finished and thanks the last minute working bee for helping push through the last part for the Huka race. It’s a great track to improve your skills but be warned; doing it when you are a bit stuffed and it will do your head in.

We opened up the new entry to the Huka Lodge down hill today so it should be packed down by Xmas. The realignment was to make it easer for the new riders on the top corners

Track of the month: Headland track - ride both ends every time you go past for the views and to pack it down for us
 

Have a happy Xmas
