Noice ..... is that a rental ... damn good narrative too bud 🥂🥂
Na that’s my rig 🚚. Such a mint trail. When you get that e-bike we will head up there 😉
super sick track! did it a few weeks back
It’s mean as aye, so flowy
what bike do u have i have a Norco sight a3
Norco Sights are sick bikes 🤘🏻. I have a Santa Cruz Nomad.
@@thesingletracksurfer mean as
love u bro
Merry Christmas Andre
Back atchya Kirky hope all is well bro
😊
This trail looks really cool! Are you able to say where it is?
It’s kinda like a alt line to the very last section of Te Mounga so it’s in that area 😉
@thesingletracksurfer cool thanks! I might check it out sometime
Wet but good grip.
I found that in the super dry dusty its slipperyier than in the wet almost. Hella good fun either way tho 😃
Silky smooth.
Nice vid mate
Its a sick trail aye
@thesingletracksurfer yeah mate lots of fun
Such a short and sweet track that pops you back to the carpark (or back up for another lap)
Its mint aye
cheers, it is on the list
Definitely worth the effort. I am looking forward to doing it again in summer
Beautiful
With the fresh snow on the hills it was truely breathtaking
The worst part of this track is not its sheer length but the effort required to get to the start - Unless you have battery powered assistance or private shuttle
Yea it’s a bit of a slog for us analog riders 🥵
Yeah boy it’s a long one alright, I like it once you see that 100 sign, can really pick up the pace 😊
I swear it’s got longer the older I get 🤣
@ I hear you, getting my gold card in January, gotta send it tho, use it or lose it, what bike are you riding?
Sick jumps dude ❤ thats my favourite track i also like P51 have you tried it? Im subbed❤
Yep I hit P51 while I was there. Codgers is a mint spot aye
which action camera are you using?
@@PatrickVroonland I use a Hero 10 GoPro mostly.
Yea it’s a big day pedalling up that hill multiple times a day 😂
It's a good track, pretty rough on my hard tail but still lots of fun. Just need a chair lift at the bottom to get you back up again. Pretty good now that there is a shuttle every Saturday now
Excellent thanks for the preview. Looks like all the rock has gone or could you still do some of the old features if you wanted? Appreciate others really like flow trails but I'm not sure I'd ride this again as it looks like the essential nature of the trail (techy) has been changed... or is it some GoPro flattening effect do you think?
The old features are still accessible for the most part. Some of those bedrock corners have been resurfaced tho i feel over time they will return closer to how they were. I was a big fan of the OG trail to
@@thesingletracksurfer Yeah you're probably right re: going back to its old state eventually. Suppose the trailbuilder(s) are between a rock and hard place with what to do if the trail does degrade over time.
I love that track. One of the best in the park.
Definitely a sick trail aye. The new Eskdale is a mint spot
This park looks like it’ll be mint for the boys
Perfect spot for you battery operated bike riders bro 🔋🚵♂️…….aloooooot of pedalling 🤣
@@thesingletracksurfer 😅
Been waiting for this one 😎 I'm going to hit it up this weekend if the weather gods play ball
Yea I was the same. Definitely worth the wait
Back out there huh? ... nice video matey
Yep. Was to nice of a day to not to ☀️
@@thesingletracksurfer add it to our list 😎
Freewheel is on my list to revisit! I haven't been down it for ages, and looking forward to be being a bit smoother/easier!
It’s well worth the grind up to the top. I reckon you’ll love it
wow!! love this trail - can't wait to try it - thanks for the vid
You’re welcome……it’s a great ride 😀
Looks mint nice riding mate
It’s super flowy compared to the OG Freewheel aye. Cool to have option lines
Didn’t even recognise you at the top of the hill today! Put two and two together with the Napier chat! Hope you enjoyed the ride down this arvo! Ethan
Haha I was in my sweaty camouflage 🤣 Was a ripper day for it aye. The rebuild is pretty mint aye?
@@thesingletracksurfer it was sick mate! Half the time I couldn’t figure if I was on a new line or an old line but I guess I survived to tell the tale.
Eskdale will be getting shuttles soon so bring on the downhill laps
Niiiiiiice that will be awesome
Looking forward to RE visiting here soon!
It’s a mint day on the bike bro, so sick 🤘🏻
They should add a Bike lift in Wainiuomata 😅
That would be mean aye
FYI, the entry to this is about 10m below where you drop into FOD/Lockdown.
Did this for the first time in the wet yesterday, frick'n spicy.
Yea I bet it was 😬🤣
@@thesingletracksurfer have you done a video of the trail that comes down from halfway up the walking track from Camp Elsdon?
A little extra propulsion at 4:03 🙂
😂😂😂
I can't wait for more. Looking forward to it.
Well I won't be rushing out to do that one .....thanks
I'm not sure why he didn't film the track just before this one - Jarden Mile. That one was much better than this.
What bar width are you running here, out of interest?
780 I think
You would wannabe be a short one 🤣
😁
Oh, new colonial knob trail, nice! They keep popping up everywhere. My local is starting to get pretty good! Is this off "Loop road" and terminates at the main 4WD track? Have you done Bush Waka (starts at the bottom of Chimney Sweep)? That's a fun steep trail! Did it in the wet yesterday, sliiiiippery :) Lockdown with the newer lower section is really good now as well.
Yea Bushwacka is pretty full on when it’s slick aye 🤘🏻
@@thesingletracksurfer yup! Might have had a slight lie down when my tyres clogged up and couldn't stop 😂
Where is this trail?
@@hamishjohnson9678 it is on the upper section of the hill.
This has always been Ridgeline Extension, Starfish/SWIGG starts after it.
@@graymcmic1419 ruclips.net/video/TFvIsrqnLaI/видео.htmlsi=S5zwxEwmShDeAbKm At the time of filming the linked clip the trail had been renamed Starfish. You can see the trail sign at the beginning of the video. It was switched back to RLE sometime after.
@@thesingletracksurfer Ah ok, I haven't been there for a few years so missed all that... cheers
Hey mart - love the vids! Bit of a random q but how do you find these trails? I've only just started up biking and have Trailforks to work out where I'll hopefully end up at the end of a trail... guessing you just have to know a guy who knows a guy. On another side note - do you know that track that starts at the bottom of Chimney Sweep/very top of rough justice? It takes you out on Raiha St. Tried doing it the other week - steep as fuck/absolute shit show for me haha but interested if you've done it. Edit: also just realised this comment may be a bit of a faux pas. Delete if needed!
Hey mate. Yea there is some super sick ‘unsanctioned’ trails up on that hill and none of them are on the map so to speak. Most of the core local riders know them well so I’d get chatting to them when you go up there and they will give you the good oil on what’s what. The trail you mentioned is called BushWhacker. It’s a pretty spicy aye 🤣. A lot of the unmapped trails need a decent amount of pre-ride checking as there are some funky features 🤘🏻
@@thesingletracksurfer legend. thank you!
Ya dude!
🤘🏻😎
Where does this start is this the one just up the hill on the left after billy t entrance on the right ?
Yep it’s up those ways 😉
Nice mate. I constantly scout Wellington trails on RUclips and I always seem to end up on your videos. The quality always seems to be better and gives a good idea of the trail.
Thanks man much appreciated. I try to give a basic easy view of the trail for a reference point for people like yourself
This is my local and I'm enjoying see the new tracks getting developed after logging and flooding and great to see top chaps like yourself out there showing it off to the world
I was blown away by how much rebuilding has been done there. The new trails are really cool aye
First 💪
You've got such mad skills, cleared those features like it's nothing... Especially 0:55, that one makes me nervous everytime
Cheers bro 🤘
Families will know pretty quickly that you can’t go down those tracks. Poos in ya pants is a good indicator . The park will start in December awwwwwww Gummon.
Most of these Ghost trails have quite burly ‘trail filters’ right at the start of them…….which…..common sense prevailing of course……should indicate to the family riders that sh*t is gonna get really real really quickly so maybe stick to the lower trails and be happy 😂…….common sense prevailing tho 😉🤣
God The woman is doing the interview is making a mountain bike trail out of a mole hill That is a good trail
