• TRAILS: Top week in Rotorua - fine and mild for the next few days.
Even with the rain since Xmas, the trails are drying out fast.
Just a little bit of mud - so, no skidding, please.
Generally, the trails are in excellent condition following a good mix of long, dry spells and a bit of rain to keep the dust down. Overgrown in places, but with rain and warmth it's perfect growing weather.
Great holiday season riding...
