New Zealand



Bike parks are lame. They should put a car park on this mountain instead. That would be much much better than some 440 meter descent through epic dinosaur forests. Ok enough with the sarcasm. Its good to see and edit with the super awesome Wyn Masters shredding. I love watching this dude ride! It also seems that this type of gravity/mtb park program taking off around the world... like this one from the UK that is geting started.

Fourforty mountain bike park is a privately funded project that started over 2 years ago by 2 individuals. On opening there will be 7 trails to choose from all with their own features and styles, from clique bike park style trails to gnarly rocky traverse single track. The total potential area of the property is over 1500 acres and the plan over the next 5 years is to develop this into New Zealand's largest gravity specific mountain bike park. The future of Fourforty is to operate a full bike service centre/retail shop aswell as cafe, bar and food facilities.
