Mountain Bike Trails in Duncan Bay

Big jump line. Closed to public, invite only.

Kaimiko Trail

Nydia Track

Start at Opouri Saddle end and ride the Opouri Bridle Track for an extra bit of technical downhill, or head into Duncan Bay and start from there. The track was once well benched, now taken over by nature and tree roots. Rocks and root riddles the track leading you over the Nydia Saddle at 370m and into Nydia Bay. You then head inland through farmland before heading over a second saddle, Kaiuma at 387m. This is a technical ride which can take between 4-7 hours to ride. The track finishes on Kaiuma Bay Rd, 16km's from State Highway 6 and another 3km's to Havelock. The trail works best from Duncan Bay to Kaiuma because if you are a good rider you can ride most uphill sections and down, the downs are more technical than the ups, so the other way would seem more of a hike-a-bike, although the descents more achievable. Not recommended in the wet.

Opouri Bridle Track

The starting point of the Nydia Bay Track if you're after a bit of extra technical downhill singletrack.

Rolling Stones

Restricted access to guests staying at the Ride Project airbnb and folk that are helping at dig days. Awesome DH track. Starts in the native jungle and then flows into regenerating bush and pine trees to the bottom of the property. Meets up to climbing track start (Hotcano). Props to Rani Bear for helping make this trail happen.

Rolling Stones link

Fun, flowy drifty, sometimes off camber short link to Rolling stones.

Sugar Bowl Jumps

Sequence of gap jumps, berms, and then single track leading back onto Tiny-T.

Tiny-T

Restricted access, open only to guests and dig day workers. Downhill track, technical riding in native forest at the top and then changes to more flow and chutes in the pines. Amazing cornflakes and dirt. Advance riders only.
