Motorbikes can only ride in Riverhead Forest at a sanctioned Waitemata Motorcycle ride. No riding at any other time.
A Fine Grind is an uphill link trail for those who like a challenge and don’t want to ride the road. One little pinch climb towards the top but all rideable. Great loop for sessions down Geeez etc .
