Enjoying breathtaking views of Mercury Bay, you will be given some fantastic photo opportunities, so make sure you bring along your camera. You do not need a driver's licence and no experience is necessary as we will take you through a simple lesson on riding the bikes prior to your ride. We will take you over the hills and ridges of the 630ha Ohuka Farm climbing to 250m above sea level where you will not only see some spectacular scenic views but you will encounter a variety of tracks from dense bush to open farmland and large steep up-hills to quick and twisting down-hills. Safety is our paramount concern - our guides are on the rides at all times, they are trained in first aid to NZ unit standards and always carry a first aid kit. We provide helmets; overalls and gumboots are available for hire if you prefer not to get dirty. Bookings are essential so contact us today to book your spot. « less
