Do a lot of riding at Alex, hear theses tracks mentioned but don't really know where they are. Zanes track, tihs track, Dr Strangelove, Wave rock, directions or a map would be really helpfull. The MTB Madness tracks are always a good short ride.
Thanks

Map wont be terribly helpful out there, grab a local instead!! Double Thumbs Up

The guys at Henderson Cycles know where all those tracks are, call in and see them. They may even be able to explain how to find the tracks, but it all looks rather similar once you get out there with gullies and tracks in all directions... so better off with someone who knows their way!!

A bunch of those tracks you mention are technically quite challenging. A reasonable set of skills is needed to enjoy most of them Big Grin

Phil at Alitude Adventures is very helpful too (and can often be found working at Henderson Cycles) http://www.altitudeadventures.co.nz/

There are a bunch of local riders down there that are often out and riding.

Oh, and last time I rode Zane's track it was more like "Zane can vaguely see a line down here" but I hear it has worn into more of a track now!!
