Tumeke aka Tu Meke Mountain Bike Trail

In Feburary 2019 Tumeke had an extension added above it which doubled it's length. After an initial short climb from the forest rd Te Ruru Starts on the descent starts in earnest. Natural rolling terrain offers a variety of lines with occasional steep drops (which are able to be rolled over), off camber rooty sections and some brief rooty sections.You'll arrive at an obvious plateau, which is an ideal spot to grab your breath and compose yourself for the trickiest section of trail to come; A generally straight and off camber flow down the hill, broken by a couple of corners which can be difficult to scrub enough speed off in order to nail your line round them. A couple of rutted and rooty sections further complicate the flow.As a relatively new trail, Tumeke is still changing with rider traffic and weather. It is far more difficult in the wet due to the soft nature of the dirt so best to leave it alone when it's been raining. You'll not only save wear and tear on the trail, but also likely save your ego by not binning it in front of your mates.
