Undulating, fast flowing trails to some more technical single track take us to the bottom. Beware there is some uphill riding. Finish at the Bannockburn pub for a well-earned drink. Lodging in Naseby for the night. Day four -Single track in Naseby Forest - spend the morning riding some of the best single track in the South Island.
