Five years on the Peak
- Makara Peak Mountain Bike Park
- Five years ago {Makara} Peak was a a bit of a wreck. There was 8km of service road and a whole lot of gorse and barberry. The Council were thinking of letting mountainbikers move in and develop tracks, but this was a pretty radical idea at the time.<p> Since then, over 15 km of track have been built and about 14,000 seedlings planted. To celebrate, we'll be having a barbecue at the planting on Sunday. There'll even be some beer and cake (and some chocolate biscuits of course).
