  • Challenge is a really fun grade 3 trail that you can go as fast or as slow as you want. It's got heaps of flow, a few table tops and as long as you have learnt how to use your brakes, you will love it! If you haven't ridden it, it's a good beginner jump trail in the redwoods! This is a top to bottom video following Tijs from Electric Bike Rotorua and Christy from NZMTB down the trail.
    Get in touch and ride all of the good stuff in Rotorua or if you are interested in doing a lesson!
