Description

Continues the flow of Cashflow Extention and keeps the pump going with this fast digger-built roller-coaster style flat track that follows the river to the northern end of the MTB Park. At the end, there is a short sandy section before you turn back towards the rest of the park and climb gradually through turns to come back out onto the gravel road not far from the entry to Ara Hoki.
