Motorbikes can only ride in Riverhead Forest at a sanctioned Waitemata Motorcycle ride. No riding at any other time.
This track runs parallel to Hogan's Heroes and connects Longbush Road and Chanty's Check. Is a nice climbing track like Elevator and will be great coming down once it's ridden in

Nice alternative climb back to Longbush. Would rock as a downhill if switchbacks where built up into berms.
