Paul, our numbers guy and his friends Pete, Regan, Steve and Nate hit the timber trail last month. They're not pro riders, just a couple of people like you and I who love hopping on bikes for the journey. We quizzed Paul about the good, the bad and the ugly:
A chance to get out with friends, smash out a awesome ride and enjoy a couple of drinks in between, the huge swing bridges on the first half and the old rail trails on the 2nd half were pretty spectacular
By a long way!
Really good, stayed at Timber Trail Lodge, cool atmosphere and great food and drinks.
Brand new Camelbak....needed that for this trip!
Nah we had most things and the accommodation had a few bits and pieces if you forgot anything.
Pretty easy, most people could ride it if they take their time and can sit on a bike that long.
Do it, just make sure you sit in the saddle for a few hours before you do it.
The number one multi day adventure ride in New Zealand, this 85 km ride traverses some of New Zealand's most diverse and fascinating environments. - https://www.timbertrail.co.nz/
