Just a hand saw for face slappers. Some gloves maybe for picking up blow down and other stuff on the trail.

Yes, dress for success....Hugo Boss. Just picked up some 50/50 Marino/ polyester base layer atmosphere sports 20 % off. Still will carry balaclava. For the skull cap....
marino ski socks do well too !

Ok, I have managed to free up my busy schedule, and will be meet whomever shows up at the Tamihi Staging Area

Dont know where the staging area is? follow this link https://www.trailforks.com/poi/39773/

For those of you not familiar with Tamihi or Neil's idea of fun. Unless otherwise stated it is better to be on a sub 650 dual sport with good knobbies

When the post is designated with this " rWr" means you will be riding to the area that need some work then riding afterwords. rwr's are usually a good time to learn the area and learn some of the guys you probably will be riding with on other events

Hope that helps a bit?

Was a fun couple of day and wow what a turnout of volunteers, thanks for your help. What started as a nightmare of log crossings in now a sweet ride in the park
