Wicked! :thumbsup:

I recognise the bottom end of the track, but not the top.

If you rode Whites Bay Loop track...you come out at a Pylon..(hence the name)...

its lots fun... steep,narrow (nice trees to tank slap on) and pretty loose as you come into Rarangi..

bring your bike next time your up this way and we'll ride it...ohh its not a wet weather track (that would be suicide) :cry:

Well sam it will always be here (hopefully)...bring your bike next time your passing thru...

We usually link Pylon on to Whites Bay Loop track...makes for about 30 minutes of sick descending :p

I would say the living in boomtown (the nam, blen-zilla, heim) is the thing to regret.

And I can say that, coming from there.

That track is not legal and not tolerated. Careful what you put in these public forums.
