Motorbikes can only ride in Riverhead Forest at a sanctioned Waitemata Motorcycle ride. No riding at any other time. A nice fun trail with a few little drops increasing in size as you go down ends on Baconator just before the roll down to the bridge.Trail built by WCRC in March 2020 on the dig day.
