Apart from a few 1000's wheel barrow loads of silt in
the culvert under SH1 the new "tunnel track" linking the Helistar
carpark with the MTB tracks at Craters of the Moon, is just about done.
2
new bridges and a tyre retaining wall later, the Track Crew has put in an awesome
effort over the last two weekends. Go and check it out (you might still have
to lower your seat in the 61m long tunnel and/or face a few scrapes on the
top of your helmet)!
Read on to see some photos.....

Most of the
underpass track now known as the "The Tunnel" has been built. You can ride
from Huka cafe (starts at the big white sign ) over to the Craters road (beside
the power pole) the tunnel is still not cleaned out and we still have to widen
the track in places on the eastern side this will be done before the tunnel get
cleaned out.

We will be having a

If you use the
underpass in the mean time please remember its a two way track and watch out
for others |
