It’s thank you time!!!!
We’ve pulled off some astounding things this year, so its time to thank a ton of people and businesses that have donated huge amounts of goods, equipment, money, expertise and time to help bring our dreams to life. Thank you, Thank you Thank you!
Thanks to Summit Forests for letting us play in your Forest, for your support, understanding and willingness to help us make stuff happen.

Thanks to Tony Worrall, Jason Voakes and Kerikeri Cabinets for your contributions. Thanks to Regan Polglaze from Barfoot and Thompson for sponsoring track signs.
The club sent a handful of people to undertake digger licencing and up-skill the track building crew – It’s awesome to see them put their new skills to work.
Thanks Northland Valuers, Prime Plumbing, Hunter Cycles and the Ray Family for making shuttles a happening thing! And Martin, Jules and Waipapa Glass for turning the little truck into a functional shuttle and to Auto One for keeping it going and keeping in legal.
This winter local businesses and volunteers created a carpark – Thanks Mahalo Transport for donating excavators, trucks and expertise, Keriland Earthworks for moving equipment, Carters Bulk Haul for loaning us a truck to move gravel, Summit for allowing use of their quarry and installing our very own gate. Thanks Northland Regional Council for donating the Kauri Die -back wash station and Oxford for funding a security camera.

Thanks to MTB Direct for passing on $1 every time you buy something. Thanks to everyone who came to shuttle days and donated towards on-going track development.
Our first Whitehills Enduro was a blast! It was a rainy, muddy, slip and slide kind of fun where all the B-lines got a good workout and everyone involved challenged themselves and each other. Huge thanks to all the organisers, helpers, set-up crew, marshals and cooks on the day and of course the riders for coming along and sharing in the fun.
