Land OwnerNew Plymouth District Council
Narrow and rooty, but lots of fun. The entrance is left off Cashflow Extention and starts with a short climb and flat section, but then it soon gets into the downhill proper. It has a fast exit onto the forestry road so take care to look for other users.
Named as a tribute to a NZ Rock band, this trail was first started in 2013.
