Park closed until further notice - Post rain event, July 2025

Kia ora riders and friends, please see the below update regarding the Mountain Bike Park.

The park has been hit hard. We're still completing a thorough assessment of the damage but suffice to say there are very few trails that have not been affected. Bridges have been washed away, trees are down over tracks and slips have taken sections of tracks out or covered them. We have a major clean up project ahead of us.

For now, the park is closed but we hope to re-open it when possible with access to some of the tracks.

While we assess the damage, we're putting the "I Dig Sundays" working bees on hold. These will resume as soon as possible but we need to first establish where we can safely deploy keen volunteers. We'll provide updates on Facebook and Instagram and our website as soon as we can but no working bee this Sunday.

The Fire Pit Thursday event for tonight is cancelled and we'll be making an announcement about next week's event in the next few days. We do hope to be able to continue these on tracks that are available. Again, we'll provide updates via Facebook, Instagram and our website.

Thanks for your understanding, and we hope to all be riding soon when its safe to do so! From the KMBP committee.
