I think ive done the tip track 3 times up in my whole life. My fastest was around 45-47 minutes.
So for your first time thats pretty darn good. I remeber the first time i did it I just beat the walking recommened time of 1 hrs only because a blitzed the DH section.
And Im never heading up there again.

Yes it is

It's to short!! 2 min track

It's a easy track that anyone can do but i think it's alright. Needs some more work done to it.

Everyone was making a new track today. Didnt go look but looks like some steep terrian!

oh cool good to have some more downwards tracks in the bay pity there all going to be quite far out ..how much is hilton charging for shutles out there ?

$40 pre person . Give me a pm or something mit beable to give you a ride out there one day and do some shuttles. The new track is a freeride track going out today to ride and have a looky.

Nice photos. I'm off for a ride at Oropi...if any of the 3 or so TGA Vorbers want to join me I'll be there at 12 with my newly adjusted and probably to slow rebound forks.

Yar, as I burst into tears I thought - this isn't FUN, it's just silly!!
Doing it again on Wednesday

rode the tracks in whakatane again. Did 2 laps of there club champs coarse and didnt feel to bad afterwards apart from having a noisy rear hub when i got back to the car.

Even (especially?) the walking up the Tip Track will be awesome for your fitness, GF. Just keep plugging away it every now and then and your strength will increase very rapidly. Your time up there is fine...

went up mt vic tonight with vert and danger_mouse.

Had heaps of fun - gotta sort out the suspension settings on the new bike, but it's already HEAPS more fun and performs better than alot I've ridden

taking it up the tip track tomorrow night

Rode a lap of the Nats XC course in Bethunes/Forrester this evening Lovely weather in Dunedin! Nice and warm
