Recreation in Orongorongo & Catchpool Valleys

The Poneke Area Office of DOC is asking for feedback on what recreation opportunities people would like to see in the Rimutaka Range.

So if youâ€™d like to see-
â€¢ Mountain biking tracks in the old logging area or up the Orongorongo River road.
â€¢ Doc working with private land owners for MTB access to the â€œBig Coastâ€

it was where Tama was helping to plan the downhill track before he moved. Don't know if anyone picked the project up from him as it's all gone very quiet.

Following on from my post earlier, I've added a link to the draft MTB plan for Catchpool into the survey.
Any feed back on whether the MTB community supports the idea would be great.
You can submit your comments via the online survey.
