Hi, have you been up Takapari Rd in the Ruahine ranges.? Its hard rock all the way and only at the very end past the A frame hut do you find anything even half challenging but its a good drive espically in Winter but stay on the formed tracks to keep DOC happy.

Ive only got 2 pic's of it on my work pc.





You can also head up the windfarm from either Piahatua track or Ballance bridge end, again its a pretty tame drive but ok if you havent been there before and you can find some good play area's in there if you look hard enough.

Costa Plenty is also close enough, but you are better off joining a club to then get into areas that are normally locked etc
